Remember that game well.
Truth be told, a little talent and stability at QB really helped that year. Didn't care where it came from. QB room was a mess after Broadway (also a transfer, btw) graduated. Jennings had a similar skillset and that helped us at least get back to a bowl game in 2016.
If this kid wants to be a Cajun and he can contribute to the cULture. Then give him a shot.
