Mark Jones then gives two strong opinions

January 1, 2016

After being afraid to go out on a limb and declare Tennessee the game winner vs Northwestern which was a certainty, Mark Jones then voiced two strong opinions.

Asked how he felt about Tennessee passing with a (31-6) lead, he used the “old” second and third team guys need work angle to justify rubbing the other teams nose in it.

Then in somewhat atypical abrasive fashion for Jones, a non talent but one who does not shriek as so many others with similar credentials do, he stated “do not play sports if you are afraid to lose.”

That is arguable, but rubbing it in to a team and Jones’ justification thereof is another low mark for college football.

Then again its greatest individual trophy awarded at an austere, likely restricted venue, the Heisman Trophy is named for a coach, John Heisman who presided over (i guess that game went over and as Arnold Wexler of Gambler’s Anonymous said, “without betting football would be soccer.”) a (222-0) “victory.”
