OT Barrett Jones Update

If Vandy is equal on that list, what are his academic aspirations?

I read in a Nashville H.S. sports publication that his Dad played for the Tide. Any truth to that, can anyone confirm? I've searched, but didn't see it anywhere else.

He's being recruited from Ole Miss by Hugh Freeze who used to coach at Briarcrest which is a rival high school to ECS in Memphis. I know Freeze and he's pretty slick. Former #1 OL Michael Oher played for him at Briarcrest. Now Freeze is at Ole Miss and who else is there? Oher. Great story if you've read it, but you have to wonder.

I believe his dad is Rex Jones, who played basketball for the Tide (82-84).

Thanks rtr, I don't know if that gives us any leg up or not.

Did he get hurt the other night?

Did he get hurt the other night?

I read that he did get hurt in his game Friday night, but he is going to be fine. According to BOL, he had a severe muscle cramp and had to sit out the rest of the game. I look forward to hearing more on him and hope he picks the Tide.
