Is there a passing QB on the horizon I don't know about?

Wishful thinking, but I wish they could have got this guy. LINK Hardly anybody out in the southern area has heard of him, but this kid can play. I think he is better than Golson or Braxton Miller. Oregon's arse will be back in the hunt again next season with him.

OP should be fired into the sun as an example. It's the only way we will deter future threads of this ilk popping up.

The problem isn't the players its the coaching. We didn't have QB issues when Jimbo was calling the offense
Jimbo started coaching in 2000 at LSU. You have no idea what you are talking about. It took him another six years at FSU to have great qb play. And even then, he had one that made a mockery of him last season.

Actually the FSU QB's did better. I think all will be 1st round picks as soon as Winston is drafted.

I have a theory about Miles and QB's, but would get shallacked for offering it, so I'll let yall stay in the dark...

Go head and say it. In this thread everyone has pretty much said what they feel.

that's a Cam and offense scheme problem not a Jennings issue. Jennings is fine. In any other offense he would have played fine and no one would even think this was an issue. He has everything you need in a QB. Now it is just up to Miles/Cam to do what needs to be done with their offense.
Jennings is slow to react and can't read a defense well. He's also very inaccurate. Regardless of what some say, he has enough arm strength to be a productive passer, but he just doesn't do much right. I mean he knows the playbook and system, but he is terrible at what you need a QB to do. He's not even athletic enough to be considered a running QB. He is not a dual threat or single threat, he is a no threat.
Of course I know a lot has to do with inexperienced and lightweight WRs, but he also shares the blame for not developing at all.

Lol, no they won't. They have to go to Mich St, to Arizona St, to Stanford, and they have to face USC the second to last game.
Oregon loses too much on defense (which was already terrible), and while that guy is a perfect fit for them, I've seen what happens when that high powered offense meets a decent defense.
Oregon will lose 2-3 games next year.

I don't really agree with all that. If he beats out Harris next season I think he will surprise a lot of Tiger fans with his play. Which ever QB wins out next season, MIles/Cam have to do their part next season in adjusting the offense to fit their abilities same as Bama did with Sims this past season. We can still be a run heavy offense but if we want the passing game to work we need to get the playmakers in space to make plays (which also helps the run game). Both these QB's are going to be better in more shotgun/pistol formations and 3wr sets. Lot of things we can do next season to open up the field for these guys.

Do you actually think even if Harris does outplay Jennings in the spring he will start next season at the beginning of the year?
Personally, I think no matter what, Les will try to work with Jennings until we get to a point where we have no choice to make a change. As long as its a W, even though Jennings may be dragging the team down. I am not sure Les will hand anything over.
Jennings can make a nice pass downfield, but he is slow when making reads and is very indecisive. His pocket presence is pretty poor as well. He has shown signs of making a few good play. For the most part, he gets lost and is stuck on one receiver. Part is due to our one man route scheme, and the other is because he just is not a very good QB. Hopefully Harris will truly get a shot at running the offense this season. Yes the Auburn game wasn't successful but he has all the tools to run an efficient and explosive offense. I hope Les can find time to put him in
I hope he is serious about the open competition. If there is barely any type of improvement in the passing game, we will have another 4 loss season.

There's always one on the horizon, and then Les Miles influences him

absolutely he will start if he outplays Jennings and shows he has a better grasp of the offense. Cam, and Miles as well, like any other coach, is going to go with the player that gives there offense the best chance of playing winning football.

couldn't agree more with that and I think Miles/Cam finally started to realize that late in the season, though it was to late to make any effective changes to the offense by that time. Should see some pretty substantial changes to the offense or we will have another sub par season. Our QB's were not suited to what they were trying to do last season on offense.

Jennings will probably be pretty good this coming season with the experience under his belt and with expected better play calling and plays from Cam and company.
Jennings will never be good enough to take this team to the SEC Championship and 4-team playoff. He simply doesn't have the talent, and that's not going to change no matter who is calling the plays.
