@EvanDanielsFOX: Damian Jones is a top 100 prospect and Vanderbilt's first verbal pledge for the 2013 recruiting class.

I love LSU and wanted him here, but I'm proud of him for meaning what he said about putting education first.

Best wishes

That's because he knows we're getting Martin and Mickey!

Would have loved to have him but he wasn't anything special when I watched him

We need big bodies and not necessarily special ones.

Can't hate on any kid that goes to Vandy or Stanford. Congrats to the kid.

Yea, I'd love him but he's just a lanky kid with no offense

It's going to be a long wait for Martin unless he surprises everyone.

would have loved one of jones or shepherd yet we will likely not get either.

jones is a good player. not as raw as some think. sucks we'll have to go up against him but we're still in on other top targets like martin and terrance magee's brother.

Still think the academic stuff is overblown and cover. Hope the transition from scotlandville works out.

Considering he wants to major in engineering, it's definitely overblown. Vanderbilt is a great school, but there are several highly ranked engineering schools in the SEC.

Im no talent evaluator, but we cant lose bigs out if our backyard. Im going to reserve my judgment on JJ until after the season, but he was brought in to recruit Louisiana.
