    Really good article about him, like this quote:

    Playing football went very well for Jones. He redshirted his freshman season, then played in 10 games the following year en route to a Cotton Bowl appearance. In 2004, LSU defeated Oklahoma, 21-14, to win the Sugar Bowl and claim the national championship. Ultimately, however, they were declared co-champions with USC.

    "That's crap," said Jones, simply. "That's like Frankfurt and Rhein Fire playing for the World Bowl, but then you say Cologne has the same record, so they might as well be champions, too. But they didn't play in the game. If they were better than the other team, why didn't they get to play in the game?"

    Hope he makes it back to the NFL, I always liked him as a player.

    You keep telling your dad / teacher that USC shared the NC in 2003.
