The Recruiting Guy : Top wide receiver giving UA a look

He does give Arkansas a nice mention, but he still seems to be Crimson Tide all over...

WOW!  This is great news....I think this is just what we need to really get our passing game started.  We all know that coach Nutt has been wanting to pass the ball more but we just haven't had enough good receivers to play his style of ball.  With Casey leading us next year as a senior, this kid will get a ton of balls thrown his way....Coach Lee is working on opening up the passing game and this might just be the key that we need to get this whole thing started.  WOOOOO PIGGG SOIEEEEE!!!!

Easy there big feller.

Your post is comical.

we've been "wanting" to open up the offense for the past 7 years.

We're one of about 8 teams in the Julio JOnes sweepstakes. Once he sees our 1960s offense, there's no way we get him.

I'd be surprised if he didn't commit to Bama.

Do you really think he hasn't seen our offense already?

We've had some nationally respected recruits at the WR position come to the UA and never amount to anything due to our overly conservative offense, coupled with the "complete lack of being able to teach and coach the passing game" coaching staff (see lack of developing QBs from above as well as numerous other threads and examples).

Heck, I'm still waiting to see what London Crawford can do.  He was very highly thought of....oh wait, he was also a little raw with tons of potential.  THAT'S why I haven't really seen him yet and may never really see him.  THAT'S why Crosby Tucker is getting all the talk on here about the ability to  really do some big stuff as a WR.  Could it be because he already has been taught proper WR skills???

Gee, who knows?  <<Sarcasm>>

Lastly, why has CD seemingly regressed & it is being suspected that Nathan may take over at some point?  Oh yeah, once a QB regresses, a raw freshman actually becomes a better alternative.

If we get him on campus, who knows....He obviously loves lifting weights and weight room has won over more than one recruit.  Seems like he's good enough to be a track star as well, and I would definitely show the two great track facilities we have. 

One just has to wonder if we he isn't going to take his visits until after the season...if we were to open the offense just a little bit to where Casey is throwing is it 20-22 times a game, hitting on about 12-15 of them for around 200 yards a game, we might have all the other tangibles he's looking for.

Jones has said that he likes our offense because of the way we get the ball into the hands of our best players like McFadden, Jones, Hillis & Monk.  I believe that he is Alabama bound and have since he became interested in Arkansas months ago, but you never know.  I think the track program is the biggest thing that might bring him to the hill.  He is an All-American type track star and quite frankly could be an All-American at more than 1 position on the football field.  I will never understand why any Arkansas fan would bash a kid for considering Arkansas.  Why not just be glad we are in the running, instead of trying to wish bad upon the program.
