re: AJ was Elite 11 coming out of high school

The fact that he didn't offer jennings, an elite 11 regional winner (over ramsey) tells me he knew who the better QB was.

OK you are back pedaling. So it should have sent up red flags that richt knew who the better QB was now? Since another team evaluated and signed a better qb, we shouldn't have?

who would you rather have right now? ramsey or jennings?

Huge offer list from big name programs. Interesting that I don't see UGA or Tech in that field.

Sounds as though he is announcing sometime between late tonight and Saturday. He is choosing between Oregon, LSU, Wisconsin and Missouri.

Just choose LSU.

That's a whole nother level of recruiting when you can pull both Rettig and Jennings at QB in the same class.

Neither guy is from LSU's primary recruiting grounds. Wow.

Les still doesn't know what kind of offense he wants to run. He pulls in one of the best pro style QB's and one of the best run-spread QB's in the last 2 weeks. Looks like he's going for part 2 of the devastating 1-2 punch that was Jefferson/Lee.

lol

some of those comments make me cringe on how true they came to be.

quote:

---

one site says he didn't, and the other says he did. idk

---

I'm telling you he did because I remember. And the site I linked is the one I follow, and he was basically between Oregon/LSU

quote:

---

what i'm saying is that mark richt did not extend an offer to anthony jennings.

you can take that however you want to take it

---

Awesome. You've been not so subtly implying that Richt did not take Jennings because Jennings was not good and Richt would be in the best position to know because Richt is in the same state.

richt has developed some great QB's

---

See. You clearly want to establish Richt as an expert on QBs.

Almost everyone thought that Ramsey was the better QB. So what? Ramsey was #6 and Jennings was $14. It's no mystery.

Richt did not offer Joshua Dobbs either. Joshua Dobbs was the #10 PS-QB. He also went to HS in Georgia. Does that mean that Dobbs is not a good QB? Dobbs was just named the "Athlon Sports National Player of the Week" after collecting 467 yards and 5 TDs in Tennessee's OT win at South Carolina.

Maybe Richt is not such a great evaluator of QB talent. Ramsey has not performed as well as Dobbs.

quote:

---

First, we run out the shotgun a good deal. Second, we recruit the highest level of players in the country, preach that we run a pro system and expect them to prepare like pros; it is reasonable to expect our players to run the offense we intend to.

---

Well, then obviously something is broke with our evaluation system or our development system.

Because it should not take a QB 3 years in ANY system except at Navy or GT to average 200 yards a game passing with more than a 50% completion percentage. That's very reasonable.

Nice link
https://espn.go.com/h...1-finals-invite

Shows both Jennings and Ramsey competing at Elite 11...Jennings won. I like this kid a lot...UGA has their QB in Ramsey so I don't think he will go there. Jennings can definitely play in our offense and would be a great addition.

I want Nebraska to get this kid bad! He should be one of our top priorities in this recruiting class.

---

quote:

---

Based from a recent rivals video, it seemed like he was most interested in the Nebraska and Alabama offers.

We need to capitalize on this!

---

Wish I was a subscriper lol

I really like this kid. He's the #1 QB on my board for 2013. Now that Bama is full at QB and I am hearing Georiga is most likely full as well, I do think we have somewhat of a chance at getting him to visit us. I wouldn't be surprised though if he doesn't end up at Miss State, or UNC based on the offer list he has so far. I also wouldn't be surprised if LSU or Auburn come into the picture in the near future. I see Miss State, UNC, LSU, or Auburn as southern Dual Threat schools that could potentially sweep in and sway him with an opportunity to stay in the south.

The #2 QB on my board with a current offer is Devante Kinkade. He's a very accurate passer who can also run, who's won a lot, who works hard, who outperformed Tommy Armstrong last year at state, and who beat out some major competitors across the country at the Dallas Elite 11.

Taking Jennings and Kincade wouldn't be a bad thing, but I would much rather have Kincade as of right now. At the Elite 11 camp in Dallas he was the most accurate passer there.

By the way, Oregon just offered.

This will be an offer he takes a hard look at considering his skill set and that his mother is from Oregon.

U of O's situation at QB looks pretty solid. Bryan Bennett, the number 2 QB last year, has game experience. However, a freshman QB, Marcus Mariotta, has wowed everyone in practice and the spring game and has a decent arm. Word is that its going to go down to the wire, with Bryan Bennett's actual in game experience, vs. Marcus Mariotta's potential (probably already better than Bennett) but they don't know if it will translate.

Chip Kelly isn't afraid of playing freshman difference makers, though. Oregon will be solid at QB for the next 4 years.

2 things

1. This kid throws on the move really well, he stays in the pocket and has that presense.

2. This kid is playing behind a terrible o-line.

Crap. I don't we stand much of a chance with all of these recent offers coming out.

Like it or not, we did what we wanted on offense. We held onto the ball for 38 minutes against f'ing Alabama. We were 2 drops away from 50% 3rd down conversions. Despite the drops we still outplayed them on 3rd dowsns, and they are perhaps the best team in the country on 3rd. This is the style we play, and it gives us a chance in nearly every game.

Point is, passing yards are irrelevant in our offense. Its all about holding onto the ball and sustaining drives. I wish we could get going more on offense too, but we aren't there yet.

Problem is, we need to forget about the JJ/jl years...nobody even seems to remember that the best team we ever fielded was led by those 2 guys.
