He’s going to Liberty University.

Jennings, an LCA grad, has transferred to Liberty and will start school later this month when the spring semester begins. Since he is transferring from a Division I-A to a I-AA school, he will not have to sit out a season and will be eligible to play next season.

“I don’t want to leave all the burden on my mom,” Jennings said. “When my football career is all said and done, the only thing that’s going to matter to me is the loved ones. I’d rather be spending my time closer to them.

“I love the Pitt program and coach Wannstedt and the fans, but it’s just that we all have to take different routes to get somewhere. Pittsburgh was not working for me.”

The article notes that he considered University of Virginia but, Coach Wannstedt wouldn’t release him from his scholarship if that was his destination. Sounds harsh and not mentioned in the story, but as previously noted Pitt plays 2 games with UVA starting this fall.

Liberty, though. Ack.

Good luck to Rashad and his family.
