at the last minute because he said he wants to coach one day and Kiffin would be a great mentor? I guess now Welsh HS would be able to use his expertise as a Def. Coordinator

I believe he was an LSU committment that didn't sign and then signed with TN .... but there was a lot of story involving his Dad being on Kiffin's staff in the next year or so, etc.
I certainly never heard anything about him thinking Kiffin was a mentor.

I wonder if JJ's dad feels bad using his son for his own coaching platform only to find out his son's coach jets on him.
Karma is a bitch.

"I think (the decision) all came down to the (defensive) coaches leaving at LSU and Tennessee getting Lane Kiffin and Ed Orgeron and Frank Wilson (as coaches),’’ said Lance Guidry, Jackson’s father and soon-to-be defensive backs coach at Miami of Ohio. "Then when Monte Kiffin got there (as defensive coordinator), that really sealed the deal.’’
Tennessee assistants Orgeron and Wilson have known Jackson since his sophomore year when they offered him a scholarship to Ole Miss, Guidry said. Orgeron, the former Ole Miss head coach, now serves as assistant head coach, recruiting coordinator and defensive line coach at Tennessee while Wilson, former head coach at O. Perry Walker, is the Volunteers wide receivers coach.
Monte Kiffin was his son Lane’s first hire and was quickly followed by the addition of Orgeron.
"Janzen wants to be a coach,’’ Guidry, who coached this past season at McNeese State and formerly was head coach at Carencro, said. "He’s wanted to be a college coach his whole life. He knows that he’ll be learning from the best. He knows that he could have a coaching job there (at Tennessee) some day, as an assistant or maybe as a graduate assistant. So it was a career decision also, not just a playing decision.’’

Actually, it was worse than that.
He stayed "committed" to LSU, then "decided" AFTER NSD that he was going to UT.
When the story finally came out, JJ had informed Kiffin of his commitment to UT, but Kiffin asked he and his father to keep it a secret in order to really stick it to LSU. They obliged, and the rest is now history.
Everyone got screwed on that one: First, LSU. Second, Kiffin when JJ was arrested, but then magically "let off the hook". Third JJ's dad, and now, JJ.
Looks like LSU came out the winner in the end. The little thug is in a good place: Uthug.
