On Wednesday, Oregon defensive tackle Jayson Jones entered the NCAA’s transfer portal. Then, on Thursday, he reported an Oklahoma State offer. The former top 20 recruit out of the state of Alabama has the talent and experience that the Cowboys are, suddenly, in search of.
Jones signed with the Ducks for 2020 and redshirted before enjoying a productive freshman season in 2021. He recorded 19 tackles and 1.5 sacks in 13 games.
The Cowboys join the likes of Auburn, Nebraska, Missouri, North Carolina and others that have jumped at the chance to add a former big-time recruit with oodles and promise and eligibility.
