I've watched that video twice and the one the Times-Pic put on YouTube several times. All I can tell, Tony Ball had the second throw, Brandon Harris had the fourth, and Justin McMillan had the sixth.

I have no idea if Jennings threw the third ball, the fifth, or both, and neither does anyone else. Even if Jennings was the only quarterback to have his passes dropped, he's been suspended from team activities for weeks and this is the first fall practice.

I don't give a damn if he's our starter for the season opener, the conference opener,suspended for four games, the backup or third-string... he at least deserves not to get shite on every time he makes an errant throw.

Good God man. Are you just fricking with us? You can tell who is throwing. shite man. They didn't run around the field.

Dude. The whole point of my initial response was to point out that no, it doesn't appear to be true that most of the drops were on AJ. I mean frick. You're so knee jerk conditioned, I'm not sure you're still with yourself.

Which is why I watched the video and then pointed out that it wasn't true that most drops were on AJ thrown balls.

frick man. Pull your head out of your arse.

WTF does chilge think? That whenever the camera isn't on AJ, some other dude runs in to throw in his place?

I'm not sure someone has sounded dumber in a thread on something like chilge is here since the time we had to explain to the dude on the OT that going 100mph and getting there faster doesn't mean you use less gas than driving 50mph.

Y'all notice about 75% of the drops happened from balls thrown by Jennings?
Oh my fricking god, are you serious?!?!



75% huh?



Did you notice that it wasn't close to 75%?!?!?

Did you also notice that Jennings' passes had a little more zip on them?!?!

Did you also notice that ALL of them were eminently catchable?!?!

I already posted that it was nowhere close to 75%.

His drops were about norm to the whole drill.

And, everyone knows I think he sucks.

Adams looked the best in the drill to me


Adams is one of those guys that could pretty much play any position on the field. He is really good at football.

Thank you, ShortyRob.


I honestly don't give one shite about who starts, but it would be nice if we could start this year without bullshite partisan over-analysis and super-scrutinizing of every possible throw in every drill.

I heard on the radio that he was criticized a bit for leaving his feet so much, despite his speed.

Yet I can't discern much of him doing so in that vid.

Adams looked like an AA
Jackson looked like a combination of Sammy Watkins and Deion Sanders
LF just hand him the rock
Toliver looks like an NFL safety
There's a reason Mills plays defense

Odell did this, he didn't turn out too bad.

Les was definitely pleased. Hopefully Donte will have a fruitful career at LSU.

Almost the same expression he gave as when Bobby Petrino slapped his hand after the 2011 LSU massacre.

This guy is going to be a stud. We should be stoked he chose us over Georgia. He's going to play A LOT this season.

Peterson type.

I really think Donte should play in all 3 phases of the game.
