Overall:

Markell Jones had a record setting senior year. Generally speaking, the only thing that stopped his runs was the end zone. Granted, it was against bad competition, but Markell could only destroy the defenders put in front of him. Jones made it to campus early and will factor into a wide-open running back competition. Jones will be on the field next season barring injury, and it's not outside the realm of possibility that Jones could start at some point.
