Jennings continually makes the same mistakes through 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 games this season, all of the offseason, Iowa bowl game and 1/4 of the Arkansas game (in which he was stellar FWIW).

Cam going to bat for him is expected in CC's post game interview, but someone needs to explain to me how he is "improving" as I'm not seeing it.

I haven't seen any. But that's besides the point. Coach thinks he can win running his O against good teams. Next two games will put his theory to the test. If we get beat like MS ST and Auburn, the writing will be on the wall. If we beat them and end this season with 2 losses, a bunch of us will have to eat some crow. I know what I think is going to happen, but I'm hoping I'm wrong.

Did Mett not continue to do the same in 2012? Miles wasn't looking to stop passing. Mett averaged like 25 attempts per game, Jennings gets around 16. Even if you take out the two games where Harris played the most, you only get a little less than 18 pass attempts on average per game. You have to give it time. The light came on for Mett after the bye week, in case you forgot.

Harris can definitely come in and play some more this year, and I expect him too, but right now, he has more experience going into his second year of college, than McElroy, McCarron, Boyd, Newton, Kiel, Kessler, Cook, Carden, Kelly, etc.
