What They’re Saying

Coach White on D.J. Jones…
“D.J. is an extremely physical runner, but also has enough speed to get to the outside. His blocking needs to be developed a little better. That’s not his forte right now, but he’s perfectly capable of it. He’s an extremely fierce competitor. He’s not the tall Eric Dickerson-type, but he’s bigger than some of the scat backs some teams are using. He’s 5-10, 215-pounds and that is probably where he’ll play at in college. He’s just unbelievably strong, with pretty good vision and great feat. And the biggest thing is that he’s very, very physical.”
