He is. I've had a sports hernia and can't imagine competing in the toughest stretch of SEC games with one. Hell, it hurt for me to sit down in the office when I had mine.

You would think they could have utilized Jennings in some capacity if he was hurt down the stretch.

I feel the same way about this injury as most of you do. Who knows how this could have affected him. I salute him for his courage and perseverance. Get well soon.

Last week someone predicted this - I wish I could find the post (or remember who said it ). Possibly the first "insider" rumor from the rant that has actually panned out.

Yes. Next question.

I used to support Jennings for being a stand up team first guy. However, after his deleted tweet a few days ago, I hope he enjoys sucking at a SWAC or MEAC school. Those are the only ones who are going to take him.

ETA: Downvote away. Don't care. Anyone who starts taking shots at our fanbase because guys are transferring out can kiss my arse. Let him go take up another school's scholly.

he's tough but I wonder if it ultimately hurt the team with a hurt QB playing limited

What most likely happened is it didn't bother him enough to not play. But one thing I do know, Harris was throwing high before bama and after, so some of his issues were there all season.


This probably does explain the lack of read option and designed QB runs after Bama, though.

I read the same post. Have been watching for information confirming the post, Whoever the poster was, he gets an "attaboy".

Wow, this dude is turning into a grade A arse clown. He must be transferring, because there's no way in hell some LSU rep wouldn't have told him to delete his account with all his poor decisions.

to be fair, he looks just as bad as Brandon Harris did last year after he tweeted the emoji equivalent of this after the Alabama loss in TS:

We absolutely have to have a backup QB that can be trusted to fill in and win when called upon. Injuries like this happen and this is another reason why we HAVE to improve QB depth. If Harris gets knicked down the stretch next year and needs a week or so to heal up and we can't trust our backup to win a game or two against a non-elite opponent that's a big problem.

I actually liked Jennings too. Heard the stories about him being a douchebag and I didn't want to believe it. The past few months have completely changed my perception of him.

This is tough for BH. If this was something he was dealing with for the last 6 weeks of the regular season, it would explain a lot more than a little of his troubles.

I always supported him. That said I bet there are some in the fan base that has given him reason to be a little jaded.
