I agree with this. Two different situations. Even with Jones though, I'm not giving ole miss that much credit. If he's so weak in his commitment that they can talk him into leaving his teammates and school to go to the rival, he didn't really want to be here anyway.

At the end of the day you have to have guys that want to be here. This is just too hard not to really want it. He wasn't a corner and quite honestly I don't see him as a safety either. All that aside, you can't expect to compete in this league with guys that don't actually want to be on your team. Another team doesn't just talk you into that without it already being in your head somewhere.
