Jrship35 Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Local Georgia Kid from Peachtree Ridge High School ............. Not much hype at all out of HS, but has good blood lines. Father is Tony Jones, played 14 years in the NFL as a OL ............... But I agree, If Coach Amotto likes the kid, I;m sure there is upside !

But I agree, If Coach Amotto likes the kid, I;m sure there is upside ! I assume he'll be a "utility player" for the Zips. Little undersized for a defensive end...little slow for an LB. But he's a 6' 2" 235 lb mature Junior that will be able to spell Marcus and Pittman, and give us some LB depth too. And, he's played on the kick off team. Not a "monster get" by the Zips, but I think he'll play an important role on a team that's looking to contend for the MAC East title in 2016. I also read that he's a pretty good student too.
