“The former players stood up and said we wanted him,” said Rudy Macklin, the star of the 1981 team. “We didn’t have a say in the decision-making process, but we all said — from Shaquille (O’Neal) down to the guys that sat on the bench — that we would like to see Johnny in the job.”

Macklin said Jones is so excited about coming home, he was already out on the recruiting trail hours after accepting the job.

Wednesday marked the start of college basketball’s spring signing period. Prospects have until May 16 to sign.

“He’s already gone — he’s already out there,” Macklin said. “He didn’t even pack.”
