Ronald Jones II has heard the comparisons. The speedy USC freshman humbly dismisses talk about how he reminds some people, including former Trojans quarterback Matt Leinart, of a young Reggie Bush.
"I think it's way too soon," Jones said Wednesday after practice, adding that Bush was "the best, the greatest, in my opinion…. But it's an honor."
Jones burst onto the scene in the season opener when he scored on a 44-yard run against Arkansas State.
Last week against Idaho, the Texas native broke off a 44-yard run, then scored from a yard out on the next play.
