Flirted heavily. Was committed to Ole Miss since early in the process, decommitted three days before his announcement, and then recommitted to Ole Miss at a hat ceremony.


Okay, it's coming back to me now. That was a wild few days in recruiting. Half my family is bleached-in-the-white-wool Ole Miss and they were gnashing teeth when they thought Bama was swooping in to steal him. Him and Tony Conner. Mississippi has been bizarrely good at hanging onto their kids despite the obvious advantages Bama has. I'm from there and I still don't quite understand what the Mississippi schools are doing that the Louisiana/Georgia/Florida schools aren't.

Jamal Peters could be our 2nd MS commit in this class.

The one thing Bama can't offer MS kids is the most obvious thing...the ability to rep their own state. Jones grew up a Bama fan. This is no surprise.
