    I like the hire. Didn't want Freeman or the guy at Georgia. Would have been happy with Nielsen but just as happy with Jones. He will fit in here and be a great recruiter. Don't care if he has never been a DC at the pro level but neither has Nielsen been a DC before a week ago. Also for that matter Joe Brady has never been an OC before but now is an OC in the NFL.

    Everything I've seen states LSU "to" hire Jones.

    So I suppose the ink ain't dry

    I'm not overly impressed with his resume. I hope Kiki is right with his comparison to Brady.

    According to T-Bob, he checks several important boxes. Experienced, but young enough to relate to college players and well-versed in modern defenses. Good recommendations from Dave Aranda and Mike Zimmer. Has the background in the Louisiana high school system for good recruiting contacts.

    Who is T-Bob? Looking at his resume it looks like he was just hired by Zimmer to be the DB coach. He spent one year with Aranda at Wisconsin. It's hard to believe O was turned down by more attractive & experienced candidates. But it is what it is.

    meh. I'm taking the wait-and-see approach. Let's see if Raesjon Davis gets excited about this hire and joins us.
