Welcome Home Johnny Jones!!! Geaux Tigers!!!!
That article has nothing to do with a suitcase full of cash or recruitment violations. I'm seeing references to this by tiger fans everywhere, so there's gotta be something to this. I'm just not sure of the real story. What are the cash-filled skeletons in this dude's closet? If it's not true, then why are these stories popping up everywhere? What really happened? And if it's not true, then why do so many people think it's true?
For instance...
"Johnny Jones was the guy with the suitcase of money in the Lester Earl fiasco under Dale Brown. LSU got put on probation and Jones had his fingers all over that illegal recruiting of Lester Earl. Once again, thanks but no thanks."
