The last two games he had hold his own against A&M and LSU.I believe only three passes were completed against him last night.I think he was one of the reasons we dropped King.He was our #2 corner last night.

I almost started a similar thread this morning. He definitely has some work to do as I remember at least one time he got bailed out by a bad throw. But for a true freshman who played WR in high school, it's hard to ask for him to play any better than he already has.

This is very true. I saw several people who had seen him play in high school say he was a gem. He played 2A ball in Eupora so he was overlooked.

He was matched up with Beckham for most of the night and he didn't get picked on and didn't look like a freshman.He still needs to add a little weight to his frame but I love his size.

Wasn't he on Evans for a lot of the A&M game? JFF evidently think Evans was open much that game.

With Mike Hilton being a pleasant surprise, and Carlos Davis back, we're starting to solidify at CB.

Who is King?

Did Carlos play DB last night?

The new #'s I saw were 19 and 15 (Bobby Hill)

Jones was #19 but was our second CB and played pretty much all the snaps.King was the Juco DB we just dropped a couple of weeks ago.

quote:

"(Jones is) getting reps and is growing up the hard way," Wommack said. "It's funny because midway through the season we thought we'd redshirt him, and Hugh stepped in and said he could play corner. We moved him and there we go.
