After watching film on both QBs

Jennings has better upside. Athleticism is overrated, but he uses his well. He has the arm strength to make every throw at the college level. His accuracy will be good at the college level. After escaping pressure, he looks upfield. When running, he is effective. Leadership skills on both him and Rettig TBD. Jennings is a future stud. Look forward to having both though.

If you just went on YouTube and watched a couple of videos, can you really call it "film"? I doubt you even used a projector.

After this I think Rettig will transfer!!! its over he has been named the back!!!!

How exactly does one know this by watching a highlight video of completed passes? I've never figured this out.

I really hope both of these guys have good careers here, not just one or the other.
Rettig took Flynn's number. Hopefully he'll follow Flynn's example if AJ beats him out (and vice versa for AJ, just thought it was cool the Rettig purposefully wanted Flynn's number).

After seeing the success of Bridgewater, RG3, Russell Wilson.. etc and seeing our Pocket Passers sometime be statues.. I am really pulling for Jennings.. and it's not a knock to Rettig. I just appreciate a guy who can make things happen when protection breaks down.

I'm gonna have to disagree with you here. Yes, Jennings is a very good, athletic QB. But, I think Rettig has more potential. First off, he's bigger, which may seem like an over rated trait when you look at the Drew Brees' and Russel Wilsons of the world, but the fact is that they are exceptions. It becomes increasing more difficult to develop when you can't see over the line in front of you, not saying he won't be a stud just it'll be more difficult for him. Second, Rettig's arm is ridiculous. I'd venture to say he has the strongest arm coming in to LSU since JR. Third, his foot work is very very good for a high school kid. He slides well in the pocket to avoid pressure and is deceivingly quick when he needs to get outside of the pocket. Fourth, he's got very good pocket presence and can "feel" pressure and adjust accordingly. I will say that Jennings has very good presence also I just feel Rettig has a slight edge at the moment in that category. Jennings does seem to make better reads but hasn't quite learned the perfect touch just yet, that comes with repetition. But, it is an advantage for Rettig because he does have better touch. I'm not saying one will be better than the other because it's impossible to predict things like that for kids coming out of high school. But, Rettig has the edge, in my mind, coming in.

I slept well last night after reading your scouting report!
