Jones just finished his second stint at Texas Tech. He also was with the Red Raiders from 2016-18 as the outside receivers coach after spending the 2015 season as Tech’s director of player development.
Jones’ background as a high school coach in the Dallas area, including serving as the head coach at South Oak Cliff from 2012-14, should help Oklahoma’s recruiting efforts in the Metroplex.
