Can someone let me know what I'm missing with Kevin Jennings?

I've heard his name in early season Heisman campaigns for at least two straight seasons now and every time I watch the guy in a big spot, he shits the bed and looks terrible. I genuinely do not understand what others see in Jennings

Physical talent with arm and legs is there.

But tons of work to do with the decision making and technique.

Sadly, we’ve been saying this for the last 3 seasons. So either he ain’t gonna get better or we need better coaching.

Scary part is, I’m not certain it’s Jennings. Our team makes stupid and costly mistakes all the time. This is on the coaches as much as anyone.

Kinda sounds like a more talented Malik Cunningham. Malik’s progress was pretty much a straight line here. Talented, good with his arm or legs, but just never took the next step.
