Tony Jones just got thrown under the bus

[Rasputin_Vol]

Wow!!! Caller on Basilio's show just threw Jones under the bus. Romar Smith, Marques Johnson, and Daniel West were his recruits and didn't pan out in Knoxville. He asked Basilio if Duke Crews was also a Tony Jones recruit. Hate to make a judgement about Jones based on these recruits, but wow. None of these guys have stuck...

And how is it his fault Ramar and Duke were immature?

I still think Jones brings a lot of good things to the table, but this will make me less worried the next time he is in the running to be a head coach somewhere.

Renaldo was also his recruit... and Brian.


Not all bad

 

[ukvols]

Good points. How do you guys know who recruited whom?

 

[dickens821]

You can look on Rivals under the UT staff to see who recruited whom

Thanks.

I couldn't find it, do you have a link?

Tony is one of the top assistants in the league. We'll see just how bad he is once he takes a coaching job by the start of next season.

Not at all making a judgement on his recruiting or coaching, but we've been hearing about how Jones is going to get a job "next year" since Bruce arrived.
