Why dont you dumbasses understand that Jennings was an inexperienced QB last year as a Soph and is going to improve with repetition? Why shouldnt he? Yall exoect Harriss to improve so why shouldnt AJ? It seems that many of you are expecting and actually pulling for poor performances from Antthony Jennings. I guess some of you are wanting Jennings to stay the same for two years? Why so much hate toward him?

No one is hating him.. but he is what he is. He is not the same talent as Harris. Jennings still had a full year in the system prior to last season. Harris did not.

There are huge strides to be made from simply one season to the next. Jennings never once showed much promise, where even Harris as a true Freshman showed flashes of elite talent.

This is why you see guys who are RS freshman have such immediate success recently in college football. They have talent, but they also were in the system a FULL season prior..

Again, no one is hating Jennings and we would be very happy to have him as a solid #2.

We get he was inexperienced. It was just the alarming lack of "getting better" that put a lot of people off.



In fact, he went the opposite way. He looked "decent" against Wisconsin and just got worse as the year moved along.

His performance against Auburn was the worst I have ever seen from an LSU QB.

Personally I don't care who the QB is, may the best man win. I just want Harris to have the same opportunity as Jennings to play. I don't feel Harris was given an equal opportunity by a long shot as Jennings had last season.

That's one game, a road SEC start against the defending SEC champs, vs an entire season of garbage.

Wasn't it established that Harris got that high ankle sprain against AU and that was a the big reason he didn't see much time afterwards?


Or have we adopted the conspiracy theory?

Did you not see Jennings play against New Mexico State? At least Brandon struggled against an SEC team. By the way, who led LSU to their only score against Auburn? It sure wasn't Jennings.

Stripes, I hope you're right. I want to win, don't care who is under center. Nothing will make me happier than to see AJ come out strong, put in work, and become a better player. Earn the job, whichever one of you it ends up being.

The only thing that gives me pause is history. We've been through this before, and Jefferson did not improve with reps. I fully understand that might be a poor comparison.

Really?!? Harris didn't get to practice, and show the coaches what he could do in PRACTICE? Guys like you, Fight4LSU, are ego maniacs who think that if they don't see it, it didn't happen.

Of course Harris got the opportunities. It's just that Cam saw, in practice, that he sucked more than AJ. He'll get more opportunities this year. Hopefully he grasps the playbook and we can all benefit from his immense natural talents.

He had virtually zero improvement from game one to the Music City Bowl. Jennings best game is still the one qtr he played when Zach got hurt.

WHEN will we see this improvement on the field?

That Jennings performance against NM was the worst Qb performance I've seen from an LSU QB.

I would like to get involved in this thread, but I'm in offseason training mode. I'll save all the hours of work wasted for August when we really get into the meat of a QB controversy. You guys need to learn how to pace yourselves.
