Truly depends on how we view our other corners. We have a few corners ahead of him for sure but he should get some playing time next year. I wouldn't expect alot playing time though.

Well we know from watching Justin Jefferson jump ahead of many more highly recruited receivers on the depth chart, that the best player plays for LSU, not the most highly recruited.

So Jones will have his chance in the Spring to win his spot. Being a "good player" doesn't mean all that much. All of the defensive backs at LSU are good players.

I remember a lot of good hype about Jones when he committed to LSU. It seemed though that Flott and Ward were ahead of him on the depth chat.

Maybe that's because Jones was mostly a qb in high school who needs more time learning the corner spot.

He sounds like a super talented kid. My magic eightball says:

"Concentrate and ask again later".

So why are you telling us about yourself before asking a question?

Jimmy Details said that he was going to blow up in the next season or so. Has the frame and very high potential.

He will probably play a ton this year. He might start. The coaches say he is one of the best athletes on the field.

Wasn’t going to answer the question until you said you’re from Hernando, Mississippi

He will get playing time this year and he will impress. He's a bit behind the 8-ball due to having to learn the position and Ward/Flott showing promise.

We have an embarrassment of riches at CB, it's ridiculous

I know the hope is that he makes the transition like Mo Claiborne did going from QB to CB.

quote:

"A high school quarterback who likely projects at corner, Jones is a top athlete, posting great testing numbers on multiple occasions, including a 4.00 second shuttle and 40.7 inch vertical jump at The Opening’s Atlanta regional," Power wrote on Friday. "The Magnolia State product drew praise from SEC staffs during the summer camp circuit and recently impressed 247Sports’ Gabe Brooks in person. Jones is thin at 6-foot-1.5 and 160 pounds but has a good frame to go with his outstanding athleticism."


He probably needed to develop physically and learn the position, but his athleticism is elite and transferring QB knowledge to playing DB can only help.
