re: Recent Opening QB Performances

I'm hopeful after Jennings' game.

I thought he really made some strides in crunch time against a good opponent.

He seemed to have a little mobility, enough to sell the option a couple times. He also showed an arm on a couple throws; not just the lofted ones, he had some ropes in there too.

His back was against the wall, we were getting beat pretty bad, and things weren't looking good. He was able to find Dural deep a couple of times (enough to convince me that the Arkansas pass was not just a fluke); and he then made a couple plays with Diarse.

Hell, he wasn't that far removed from a 300 yd game: the tight end drop was almost criminally bad, one of the screens to Fournette was hard but could have been caught, and the ball to Quinn was close. I think Quinn makes that catch later in the season.

This was not against a pushover.

On the other hand, I think some of the unrest is due to the lack of a running game for most of the game. We supposedly had the greatest running back of the past decade on campus, and he looked very ordinary yesterday.
