Wow, I wonder where Joey Jones is heading? Jones was my first favorite Bama player when I was a little bassid playing football in the back yard. This news is surprising. Thank you for posting this OP!

He built that program from the ground up. Him resigning is surprising to say the least but they did get slaughtered by Georgia Southern last Saturday.

That's a bit of an exaggeration man. I would like to see what Jones could do at a bigger school though.

Well he started that program from scratch and took South Alabama to a couple of bowl games. His time here had run it's course though, the program needs some new blood.

This is about as shocking as finding out that there isn't an Easter Bunny

That result was probably the most stunning of the year.

There is a general opinion in the fan base to avoid SEC retreads- at least ones that were recently fired. You may see a chizik or something thrown around but I doubt we'll go after any of the recent firings.
