Ohio State's Jamarco Jones stepping up in new veteran role

Jamarco Jones doesn't have the typical experience of a veteran on a team, but he's becoming a leader on a young offensive line.

"When the game starts and the bullets start flying, and we start going against the ones in practice, he's very calm, cool and collected. He's very tough, he's physical, he knows what's going on. You can tell he's been in there a little bit. He's a little further ahead poise-wise and maturity-wise than those other guys."

Junior offensive tackle Jamarco Jones is likely to be Ohio State's starting left tackle and while he might not have the experience expected from a leader on the offensive line, in spring practice he's certainly caught the attention of those around him with his consistent play.
