This kid will be an All-American if he keeps it up. Absolute stud. I think we stole him from Auburn and Alabama.

He would have made some noise in the Big Ten and could play for Alabama and Auburn too no doubt.

Point is he is a power 5 type player that we stole from those schools. Glad he is wearing our uniform.

Imagine having Jones and Frye on the field at the same time returning kicks / punts...

I think he is a steal. From the talent he shows he is about as good or better than a lot in the SEC.

NB has attempted to duplicate that with his recruiting here as well. But, he doesn't use that as a hard-and-fast rule because this level requires you to take some "risks," if you will. 247sports.com/Recruitment/Marcus-Jones-85306/RecruitInterestsHere is the list of offers he had. 1 P5 offer. Size is never the end-all-be-all and I'm glad Troy did their due diligence.

Without his plays last night, we'd have gone home with an "L".

Well a lot of schools were wrong. Marcus is a special athlete. He will be playing on Sundays.

Coach Brown said he made an extra effort to recruit Marcus. I can see why.
