Among his awards were the Bob Cousy Award he received his junior year, the team's Most Valuable Player Award his senior season and was a four-year Most Outstanding Athlete for the College. Following his outstanding collegiate career, Jennings was invited to the Denver Nuggets of the National Basketball Association (NBA) Rookie Camp.
