Jennings seems to be a good kid, & he was done wrong at the last home game. However, Harris has too much talent not to get playing time. He can handoff to #7, too. And the running game which was established against UF would help his passing game.

No way, just needs some snaps he will be a good one.

I want to see Harris too, but he was a mess v. Auburn.

He'll have a chance to make amends.

Ugh, I wish we had quarterbacks who were so good they go pro after their redshirt sophomore season. Then Harris would be playing in no time.

It's up to him. There's alot more to playing QB than throwing tight spirals.
But not many wouldve came into this league as a true freshman under these circumstances and do any better.

Harris seems to have all the tools. Patience is what he needs from everyone, including himself. Will be interesting to see these two develop their skills moving forward.

He seems to have the mental makeup and attitude as well. He'll be a very good, if not great, QB for us, I just don't think he's ready to take full control right now.

Everyone involved should want BH to have some time to get experience and poise, the only things he's lacking before being rushed into the field.

If only we had established the running game before Auburn, he wouldn't have thrown ten feet over guy's heads.

I think he will take over early next season once he has the playbook down.

Unless Jennings has another NM St type game or someone just beats the brakes off of us early, I can't see Brandon Harris getting a lot of playing time.

Game film says otherwise.

Exactly my point. Brandon would have probably been more relaxed in the UF game with a running game & not a 17 point deficit in the 1st qtr.

Enlighten me. Fournette carried the ball 27 times. It seems to me that we ran the ball more than pass it???

I personally don't care who the starting QB is. If Brandon Harris rides the bench for three years because he doesn't represent our best opportunity to win then that is just how it is. If he starts against Ky and does until he leaves fine with me. Why do people who have NEVER been to a practice or broken down film need to act like they know something?

for the most part, but sometimes gets things like that wrong. But give him a little time. He is going to be a good one.

1.Jennings is just a sophomore not a redshirt sophomore

2. I think the point is that at some point Harris is going to overtake Jennings.

Nothing in the Miles history indicates He will get a "fair shot to compete". When Miles says that, he might as well wink and say "yeah right"
