The hell? Do we not call people by their names anymore? Does everybody just make up their own name now and stick an @ in front of it? Why would coaches be referring to players with these @ signs? Clearly I'm getting too old to understand how we're supposed to communicate.
...Jennings just doesn't appear to have a very good arm in those short, limited videos. Yes, I'm aware it's his second practice here, ever, but that doesn't change anything. Right now the majority of throws I've seen of him have been under thrown, and he doesn't seem to have a good spiral. He has lot's of wobblers, and he lacks accuracy. I'm sure all of that can be fixed in time, but right now he doesn't look like a future starting SEC QB. Dormady appears to have the strongest arm on the roster.
I hope Jennings pans out as a QB, I really do. I would love nothing more than two TN boys to lead us to the promised land in Jennings and Hurd.
With that said, Jennings just doesn't appear to have a very good arm in those short, limited videos. Yes, I'm aware it's his second practice here, ever, but that doesn't change anything.

Yall go ahead and flame away, attack me if you wish. I'm sure there will be many on here that agrees with me too though.
Jennings was consistently under-throwing his receiver. Dormady was consistently over-throwing. The good news is, as you said, this is just practice #2 in spring camp. Lots of time for development. The even better news is: Josh Dobbs was throwing strike after strike. He looked really accurate today, was very nice to see.
I haven't seen him, but his football future is probably at another position, but what if we get down to the 3rd sting QB this year? I hope he stays at QB this year and determine where he will best succeed later whether it be QB or somewhere else.
The quotes are taken from the UT twitter, but I find it annoying also. They send them out as the interviews are live. The videos and transcripts are released a short time afterward.
I don't see him playing another position anytime soon. For Pete's sake, they just started their first college practice and you're already trying to determine Jenning's future position? Geesh, man. Patience.You're probably right, his future is probably elsewhere. Most likely on D playing safety. His heart is set on playing QB though, you've got to admire his determination. Hopefully he doesn't decide to transfer if it doesn't work out at QB for him. He can be a star on D too.
By the way, does anyone know what construction is going on, near the practice facilities, there in the video at the 1:30min mark?

Thanks. With the close proximity, I thought it might be the new athletic dorms (or is that what is referred to as a residence hall?). Thought there was general student dorms (residence hall?) and then the Ahtletics dorms. Wasn't sure when they had that planned to start.The new residence hall and the new parking garage where Stokley used to be

We lost Ferguson, Worley, and Peterman, and that's why we brought in 3 QB's, not 2 + a Maybe. Butch wants 4 QBs on the roster, and that's what we have. So, Jennings isn't going anywhere.
