Jones is a reliable back and gives great effort but he is just athletically limited. A more explosive back houses some of the runs that Jones gets tackled on once he gets into the secondary. People act like he’s a game changing back but the reality is he averages 4.4 yards per carry and only has two 100 yard rushing games this year.

A statement preceding a “but” means you don’t really believe that.

You can’t just speak in absolutes about someone you don’t know. I don’t blame jones. I blame the lack of recruiting a complementary back to go along with him or the lack of putting in the guys on the team who have this skill

It’s like you guys have never watched a Kiffin and White running back room before.

They don’t fricking rotate backs.

Kevin Smith wasn’t at Ole Miss that year. Since smith returned to Kiffin’s staff (2023) that haven’t had a 2nd back get more than 95 carries.
