17th Commitment From Georgia Dual-Threat QB

Since JaMarcus's departure, true LSU fans wondered "When will we have another good quarterback under center?" Some thought it would be Jordan Jefferson others pushed for Jarrett Lee. The result?

2,135 passing yards between the both of them. Just to keep things in perspective the top SEC quarterback threw for 3,638 yards (Tyler Wilson) and good ole Case Keenum threw for over 5,600 yards. Of course numbers are skewed with LSU attempting only 279 times last year but if we had a quarterback that really could slang it around; wouldn't our attempts reflect that?

In my opinion, it would and looking at the moves we are making in recruitment, the coaching staff agrees.

The Tigers received another four-star quarterback commitment; this one coming from Marietta, Georgia's Anthony Jennings on June 7. Jennings chose the Tigers over 40 other schools including Alabama, Arkansas and Mississippi State.

Jennings is a 6'2, 205 pound dual-threat quarterback. He played his Junior year with a torn knee ligament and still managed to throw for 2,187 yards, 19 touchdowns and only four interceptions on top of rushing for 464 yards and 8 touchdowns. Jennings was also named the MVP of the Elite 11 Atlanta Region. He will now participate and compete in the Elite 11 finals in California in July against the nations top high school quarterbacks.

Jennings will join Hayden Rettig  as two of the nations top qartuerbacks in packing their bags for LSU in  2013. If these two stay committed, we can be looking a pretty decent group for seasons to come. Both have the opportunity to redshirt and develop into premiere players; solving the quarterback conundrum for the first time in years.

This sets up pretty nicely for us but I can't get this past season out of my head. Let's fast forward to the 2015 season. It's the beginning of Spring practice and Coach Miles (assuming he is still here) says "Well ummmm we have two great quarterbacks ready to take the wheel of this offense. Either one can be the starter but we'll use the two quarterback system when needed." *insert face palm* Hopefully this is just me playing Devil's advocate and I won't have to dig up this post down the line. May the best man win.
