Phelon Jones transferring to Alabama
Quote:
Alabama is getting some defensive back help for the future.
Former LSU cornerback Phelon Jones has decided to transfer to Alabama, Ian Rapoport of The Birmingham News is reporting. Jones and his father met with Alabama coach Nick Saban on Monday.
Jones, who's from Mobile, Ala., will have to sit out next season and will then have two years of eligibility remaining. He started two games for the Tigers last season after redshirting in 2007.
Initially, it appeared that Jones was looking to transfer to Auburn, but he was told Auburn had no scholarships available. Jones was then released by LSU to pursue his opportunities with Alabama last Thursday, and he firmed everything up with Saban and Alabama officials on Monday.
