Anthony Jennings

Now Hud can relax and use Nixon as a running back.

This transfer has always been a no brainer. If he wants in, you take him yesterday.

If we are worried about Davis' confidence because we bring in another QB when we have no depth there, then I'm more worried about Davis. I think that guys who are willing to lead their team and work hard would not necessarily be affected negatively by something like this. As far as Weaver goes, he's a true freshman and I just don't think its as common as people think to see a true freshman step in and be ready for everything they have to grasp. I'm all about giving him time to mature and grow and get comfortable in the offense. Doesn't mean he doesn't have talent but very few guys at this level come in with the poise to match the talent and lead right away. In other words, i just can't see how his addition hurts the team unless Jennings becomes some sort of cancer.

I do not believe Jennings will be an attitude problem. No past character issues that you can find.

I have to disagree with you we invited Broadway when we still had Gauthier you could never have enough depth at QB. I like the decision.

Broadway was the most highly recruited QB to ever come here. Also, Hudspeth had the connection before he ever coached game 1. Completely different situation.

I've been begging for Hud to bring in a grad transfer at QB for years now...I'd just be a ____load happier if it was an actual QB. But...sigh...this is what Hud wants. He wants a mobile guy. He wants an extra running back who couldn't hit the broad side of a barn down the field. Maybe it's because of our offensive line problems. Maybe he secretly wants to run a triple option. Maybe it's because he watched too much Randal Cunningham videos. I don't know. Who knows it might work out...or it might fail miserably. My excitement level is currently at Golden Girls reruns for this upcoming season. I pray I'm dead wrong.

Glass half full view:

Having one of the best zone read/running QBs to ever play in the Sun Belt on the coaching staff will pay huge dividends with our offense eventually. If it was me, I'd have Mike D working with Jennings from the word jump.

Its true, the cat is out of the bag now. They were trying to keep it under the table.

I'm hoping that is not where our rcaf payments are going!

His addition to our staff may be the biggest hire we have made, at least IMO.

Is transferring to UL. Graduated early in 3 years and is eligible right away.

Say it ain't so.

Our offense is a great fit for him I think he will do well here if he wins the starting job... from what I hear Davis has looked like poo

isnt he coaching wide outs though? i know there is some carry over, but he will be spending most if not all of his time with the wide outs, with the exception of skel periods and 1 on 1 periods.
