Can you tell me this anybody what the Frick did our staff see in Jennings during his recruitment ?

Positives: Strong, fast, athletic, with very nice touch on his passes. Plus a lot of character.

Negatives: A middling college arm.

Conclusion: This is a program player who, once developed, could be a solid starter and game manager.

These are just my guesses, but if this is what they were thinking, I'd say he is right on track to prove them right.

Frustrated fans just don't realize how hard it is for a young QB to play that position. It took Mett until his fifth year before he produced at an elite level. His second year (That's what AJ is in) he was playing against a bunch of glorified high school kids in JUCO. His third year he sat the bench at LSU. His fourth year he was mediocre as a starter. And finally, in his fifth year, he was elite.

Quit blaming the kid! The fault is with the coaches who recruited poorly, and left us with nothing but an unready kid. I'm proud of the young man for putting it all out there and giving his best. Anthony Jennings will always have my admiration for that. And he should have yours.
