CB to display talents for coaches

Marshall, Texas cornerback Justin Jones has two schools all set to come see him work out later this month and his coach believes those two won't be alone.

"Justin is a definite Division I-A player," Marshall coach Rodney Southern said. "He has been our best cover corner and just keeps getting better. He's a shutdown guy. We put him on the other team's best guy and don't worry about that side.

"He's quick and has really good speed. He's 6-foot tall and weighs about 180 pounds, so he is really pretty good size for a cornerback."

No schools have extended scholarship offers to Jones, yet.

"Oklahoma State and Texas A&M have both called me to tell me they were going to come see him practice in the first week of our spring ball. We start that up on April 27. That will be his first chance to really standout in front of coaches and I think that will just drive the attention up for Justin from more schools."
