Great article from John Brice on Jones

[voldawgforever]

I hope the Mods are okay with me linking this article. It's a very good write-up!


Jones' gait, the Olympic Committee would label it speed-walking, has a way of making others struggle to keep up. Taking the stairs down to the Vols' indoor field, strength coach Dave Lawson speaks to some high school coaches and says of attempting to stay in Jones' shadows, "I hope you've got your running shoes on."

"Soft guys will get exposed today!" Jones intones. "We're fighting for blades of grass today! Fighting for blades of grass! C'mon LaTroy! You're going to get exposed! Justin Coleman didn't come to get better today!

I want to look in their eyes," Jones explains, "and just make sure they're doing OK. These guys have a lot going on and a lot asked of them."


I liked this part....when u can look into your players' eyes and know all that needs to be said and they can see the conviction in what you're saying....that's a huge part of being a great motivator and leader....i bet these players would run through a brick wall for CBJ if not now, after a few more months of getting to know each other
