Cam Jones talks fifth visit to Rocky Top

For Cordova, Tenn. athlete Cam Jones, the questions in the spring were where would he play in college.

Jones plays receiver, defensive back and end for St. Benedict High School.

Many schools project him as a linebacker in college, though, and as more people have seen the West Tennessee native and brother of VFL LaRon Harris, the more sought after Jones has become.

On Friday and Saturday, the 6-3, 205-pound prospect was back on Rocky Top as a part of 'Orange Carpet Day,' and afterward Jones admitted he's pretty comfortable with the Vols.

“I have been up here like five times already, but seeing the coaches and what all they can do for me and how they treat me is really nice,” Jones said.

“Tennessee is high up there. I love it there. I will be back.”

One of the things that Jones likes most about the Vols is how honest they are with him about everything.

“They keep it real with me,” Jones said. “With the coaches I have never been around a group of people who are real with me like that.

“I saw it right away. The second we started communicating I saw it.”

Jones recently decommitted from Indiana and after a big time performance at a satellite camp in Memphis, Jones' phone is ringing a lot.

“I'm talking to Memphis, Mississippi State, Missouri and Indiana is still up there,” Jones said.

“A couple of months ago recruiting started off a little rough but now I'm just living it up.”

Given that he rushed into a commitment to Indiana and he just recently decommitted, Jones said he has no timeframe for making a college decision.

“I'm not trying to make a big decision right now,” Jones offered.
