re: The case for Daronte Jones

His thoughts on the recent results from DC Daronte Jones...


"I am proud of him. Really proud of him. When I went in during the open week, and said (what we were doing), and he put it in and didn’t blink. And he’s calling it. To call zero blitz, you gotta have some you know what. And he’s doing it, and he’s not blinking."


On the decision to move to 3-4 looks on defense...


"I told the guys we have to change going into Alabama. I was looking at the front, since that’s my expertise, and we weren’t stopping the run in the 4-3. You have to do different things … I knew some defenses we could put in that were better against the run, and they would change their blocking schemes. Why I was doing that, other people were researching, and Coach Coyle came up to me and said he’s got blitzes that he knows can get home, but they have to be zero. I said run them. We put them in, ran them all week and they have been working for us."


— Bama defense and thereafter was not Jones D. It was O who “meddled” and told Jones what they were gonna run. This was all easy to find it is wild the narratives that start here and become truth isn’t it.
