Just how do you suggest that he bring in 4 & 5* recruits when he has had 2 or 3 weeks to recruit them and every other coach has 2 or 3 years? We can not start judging his recruiting skills until next year!

I agree Jones is behind the eight ball but he should have been in on some higher profile guys at Cincinnati already.

He should be able to flip some of them now that he is carrying the bigger carrot of an SEC school.

Cincinnati has two guys that the Vols and other SEC schools were in on on their current roster already in Munchie Legeaux and Kenbrall Thomkins. I am sure he was going after some guys for Cincinnati that were being pursued by SEC schools this year as well.

Fair or not, Jones should absolutely be judged by what he can do under difficult circumstances.

I don't expect miracles but I will be sorely disappointed if he fills this class out with 2 and 3 star guys just to sign a class.

There isn't any grace period in college football and especially the SEC anymore.
