What I remember most about those teams in the Jones era is how many players Houston Nutt had out of position.
Jones QB to NFL WR
Shawn Andrews T to NFL 3x Pro Bowl G
Jason Peters DT/TE to NFL highest paid OL, 7x Pro Bowl, premier OT
George Wilson WR to 12 year NFL S
Peyton Hillis FB/KR to 8 year NFL RB
Then the transfers
Tavaris Jackson QB transfers to Alabama St., still in the NFL backing up in Seattle, was a 2nd rd draft pick.
Michael Coe CB transfers to Alabama St. 5th rd draft pick, played 6 years in the NFL and has been in the CFL the last 2 seasons.

To be fair, he was a WR in Buffalo before a rash of injuries when he volunteered to switch sides and turned what would have been a brief stint in the NFL into a career by doing so.

Also on this one he was 3rd string behind Darren McFadden and Felix Jones. There isn't many backs in the history of the SEC that would have cracked the starting spot. Moving him to FB to get him on the field was a smart move IMO.
