D-BONE Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 Ole Miss connection likely indicates this is another Dave Wommack disciple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zlinedavid Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 Counting Allen, I think that's our 4th ex-Ole Miss coach (Allen, Heard, Wommack, Jones). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leathernecks Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 Finally got some time to look into this, and it sounds like it is a really good hire. I thought safety improvement the last couple years was lacking, so hopefully some new blood in there can really help. We need a better pass rush to help our safeties, but we also need our safeties to cover better to help our pass rush. Hopefully Jones can help our safeties get rid of some of the big plays they gave up last year. In 2014, Jones was the National DB coach of the year along with Dave Wommack. That year, the Ole Miss defense allowed only 8 touchdown passes and had 19 interceptions. Jones was also at FAU this year, so hopefully he can help our Florida recruiting even more. We need to get back to getting 7+ guys from Florida like we were doing before this year. I would think with the added Florida connections, 8 wins, and a good showing in a Florida bowl, we could have another really good year recruiting Florida in the 2021 class.
