Did Jennings screw your mother or something? You seem to genuinely hate him.

Marcus Randall was better than Jennings. Hatch could run better than him but got hurt too much.

Neither Randall or hatch ever had a game as bad as Jennings had against New Mexico state.

2 INTs and a lost fumble in 3 out of 4 possessions.

People don't seem to be able to like a young man as a person, and respect him doing his best, while at the same time thinking he lacks the ability to be developed and to grow out of his poor thought patterns. These are 2 entirely different things. Like not exposing a young lady who you love and who dreams of being a beauty contestant because you don't want to see her dreams crushed because she is just lacking. You encourage her for a while just to make sure, and then if you really love her you will work with her to steer her ambitions to something she has a chance to succeed at. Life is full of these sort of realities, and pointing to the exceptions is invalid when 90% of the football knowdlegeable world sees that the upside simply is unlikely. The job of the LSU coaches is not to forge a path based on 10% likelihood, but to find a way that is at least 50-50, and hopefully in the 70+% range of success likelihood.

Should have never been throwing the ball in the first place. Still had better stats than Jennings.

Tipped passes. Did you even watch that game?

Not to mention that was a top 10 team on the road who ended up winning the championship that year.

Jamarcus killed the scrub teams.

Let me clarify. I do not expect Jennings to emerge from Fall Practice as a polished, 3000 yard QB... but I refuse to believe that Jennings is incapable of improving upon the product he displayed in his 2nd year. Every LSU QB under Miles has managed to do so.

This "ceiling" bullshite is exactly that.

Lee was absolutely dreadful in 2009

Jefferson was ridiculously bad in 2010

When Jennings throws 5 INTs in 15 minutes, feel free to use this argument.

Jennings isn't as bad as you are making him and the QBs before him weren't as good.

His play is indefensible. There isn't even an argument. The kid was bad.

I'm not saying he can't improve. But he was as bad or worse than Jefferson ever was.

His play was nauseating, putrid, disgusting, and embarrassing. That doesn't confine him to the same play for the duration of his career.
