re: so, LSU has to have Johnny Jones

I can understand someone not wanting to hire Johnny Jones, but the Lester Earl situation should have nothing to do with it. Lester Earl has admitted to lying to the NCAA. Even if some of the allegations were true, Johnny Jones was the fall guy. Are you guys going to tell me that Dale Brown was able to recruit the Rudy Macklins, John Williams, Shaquille O'Neals, Stanley Roberts, Chris Jacksons, Jamie Brandons, etc. with out being a little dirty? LSU was never able to recruit nationally (unless the coach brought in his own son) before Dale Brown, and they haven't since. I'm certain Dale Brown knew how to get around the NCAA rules.
