    A moment of panic this morning when I saw the headline on 2theadvocate.com

    The first thing I thought was a release from his LOI :shock:

    I like his tone now, enthusiastic about what he's doing. I hope we like the results. I'm cautiously optimistic. More worried about the D-line really.

    He's incredibly athletic. I think we'll see a much improved secondary for years to come.

    The overall hustle-to-the-play approach is unit to unit throughout LSU’s new defensive scheme, from the front to the back, and Jones said he sees that as a plus.

    “I definitely like the aggressiveness, forcing the quarterback up to throw the ball up and let the receiver make a play"


    Hallelujah!

    Well, expectations for Jones are getting pretty high. If he can live up to them, this is gonna be a great year for the D. I'm cautiously optimistic. :grin:

    Chad looks great so far.

    It's amazing the leverage a kid gains when he threatens to do a J. Mitchell and start focusing more on baseball.

    The coaches suddenly listen to your suggestion to change positions when you do things like that. :grin:
