Harrison Jones made his commitment public tonight for the Tide. This one has been in the bag for a while and I am very glad to have him. He will
be used like we use Smelley.
Although no surprise, its great to have him as a part of the 2010 signing class. Welcome aboard, Harrison.

So this guy is a project? Just guessing anyways, He doesnt seem very big, or fast... Whats are the positives? Will this guy play next year like Cade Foster? Or will I not hear this guys name till 2012??

Good Kid, great Hands, may not play for a year or two, but will be a solid backup and has the ability and drive to possibly develop into a great starter.
All my opinion of course.

"I really like the tight ends' coach (Coach Williams) and the guys that play the position now. Many of the tight ends, such as Preston Dial, Colin Peak, and Brad Smelley, have talked to me about the program and encouraged me to join them there."

He's likely an H-Back . Too soon to say but redshirts are going to become more and more common as the level of talent keeps rising

For me, I'm glad to have him just as a character guy. A guy you want in the locker room in big games and on the field when the game is on the line.
More importantly, I'm sure if he's anything like his brother that he will work his tail off to get on the field to help the team one way or another. CNS told him to gain some weight, and he will heed that advice.
