Urban Meyer wanted him and had him committed for about a year. Saban wanted him, and to beat out FSU on signing day, Emory Jones is a HUGE get for Dan Mullen and Florida. With Mullens proven track record of developing QBs, arrow is pointing up for UF.
Lol maybe at MSU where the talent gap isnt that big but now hell be able to land top 10 classes or close basically every year
Yet he still took a team with barely any top 250 recruits to #1 in the country
Those classes still probably didnt have many four stars I figured they were ranked a lot higher then south bamaLOL. He lost to South Alabama in 2016. He had recruiting rankings of 16 (2015), 37 (2014), and 26 (2013) in the 3 years before that. Rivals rankings go to 100, and South Alabama wasn't even listed in those 3 years.
He didn't beat a team better than 8-5 the year that he got to #1.
Developing a QB is a strength of his. We will see if he can develop and recruit a whole team that will make you guys happy.
Jones really had a rough week in Orlando. He struggled with his accuracy throughout the week and he just never found a rhythm as a passer. The conditions were far from ideal, but he just seemed off from day one for whatever reason. Jones is still a Rivals100 prospect and he still has a lot of tools for the Florida fans to be excited about, but his stock dropped some after his final high school performance.
