I'll always remember Chad following Patrick Peterson's windmill.

That.......and when he nearly killed that Arkansas receiver in the end zone..........also nearly knocking himself out. I loved it.

I also recall him never calling a fair catch

Great tiger

Just remind you guys that yesterday marked exact 7 years since Chad Jones got in a car accident that derailed his entire life.

I thought Paul was out of his mind when he brought Chad in against Virginia in the CWS after they closed in to within 1 run. He walked the first batter but then settled down and got us out of the jam. Truly remarkable how gifted an athlete he was.

If you remember, he wasn't even on the team to be a pitcher. He made the starting lineup as an outfielder and was batting about .350 before leaving for spring football training. Came back and they decided to see how he'd do on the mound. Came in against Auburn and shut them down. Then mowed down the best hitters in the country in Omaha. Unreal.

What's his current situation? Is he working? He's mobile right?

If Chad Jones shows up in Omaha surprisingly tonight, that would get CPM and his team fired up. What y'all think?

Will always have incredible respect for Chad. A true leader on and off the field. No matter what, you have to respect his hustle. Hope to hear he's doing well, and god bless you chad!
