LUBBOCK, Texas - Texas Tech Head Football Coach Kliff Kingsbury has announced the promotion of Emmett Jones as an offensive assistant coach. Jones has served as Tech's Director of Player Development since February 2015. Jones' specific position duties will be announced at a later time.

"Coach Jones is an extremely hard working individual and already an integral part of our staff," Kingsbury said. "He will be a great addition to our offensive unit and the relationships he’s built around the state will be invaluable moving forward."

Jones arrived at Texas Tech following three seasons as the head coach at South Oak Cliff, one of the top high school programs in the state of Texas. South Oak Cliff was a combined 30-8 under Jones as the Golden Bears advanced deep in the Class 5A playoffs in all three seasons, including a trip to the regional championship during his final year in 2014.

In addition, South Oak Cliff was also a hotbed for talent during Jones’ tenure as multiple players signed with Division-I programs, including current Red Raider freshman Jamile Johnson. Jones had five players from his 2014 squad sign with Division-I programs.

Jones spent his entire high school coaching career in the Dallas area as he was the offensive coordinator and receivers coach at Dallas Skyline for seven seasons. He also coached wide receivers at his alma mater, Seagoville High School, from 2001-04 and then Dallas Lincoln High School for one season.

Jones graduated from North Texas in 1999. He and his wife Marlo are parents to two kids, Emily and Emmett.

      The Athletic on DFW Football recruiting

      We have complained for years about being left in the dark. The Mean Green Club was promised quarterly meetings that never took place, now there is little to no coverage of the spring practices, player movement is constant so the days of watching a last second scholarship player developing in to a Hall of Fame performer are long gone ala Johnny Quinn, there is little to no fan engagement, etc... It just keeps getting worse and without a push to really involve the fans, I foresee a bleak future. They, the AD, has to create excitement around the team/program or Apogee will just become a waste of money, the new basketball arena will never happen and future adds like baseball will just be an idea that came too late. The days of the G5's are on their way out. It will be whittled down to the top 40 or 50 programs as D1. We might as well go back to our D1AA days and play at the FCS level. I am just about done with sports from a financial commitment position. I will watch on television, but that's about it, much like pro sports have become. I have no interest in attending a Cowboys' game live once they prices became ridiculous, same with the Mav's and Rangers' in that stupid new ballpark that was a waste of money. I had arrived at a point where I was only willing to invest in watching North Texas live, but the current situation has ruined that as well. I future of all of college sports is a disaster if some type of control isn't put in place. It is ridiculous and very sad.

      SB at Memphis (4/19-21/24)

      Opportunity to beat up on one of the worst teams in the country in Memphis (5-34, 1-17). Really can't let them steal one like UTSA did a few weeks ago. This could help solidify a top two seed (top two seeds would only need to win two games in the conference tournament to win the title) if Tulsa takes 2 of 3 from Charlotte this weekend. SCHOOL CONF CPCT. OVERALL PCT. HOME AWAY NEUTRAL THIS WEEKEND Florida Atlantic 13-5 .722 33-12 .733 19-6 11-6 3-0 vs. UTSA North Texas 12-6 .667 25-19 .568 15-8 7-9 3-2 at Memphis Charlotte 12-6 .667 26-16 .619 12-8 9-7 5-1 vs. Tulsa Tulsa 12-6 .667 27-15 .643 13-3 9-8 5-4 at Charlotte UAB 11-7 .611 20-22 .476 13-5 2-13 5-4 at Wichita State Wichita State 10-8 .556 19-18 .514 5-6 9-8 5-4 vs. UAB South Florida 9-9 .500 30-16 .652 23-11 7-5 0-0 at East Carolina East Carolina 7-11 .389 30-15 .667 21-7 5-8 4-0 vs. South Florida UTSA 3-15 .167 12-34 .261 3-10 2-14 7-10 at Florida Atlantic Memphis 1-17 .056 5-34 .128 4-16 1-13 0-5 vs. North Texas

      Doesn't seem new, but unlimited transfers

      I can't blame them, the system in place allows them to profit and to move freely. We may not like it, but it's the system. I'm hoping schools taking over the collectives, it's already happening for reasons I stated above, will usher in contracts and buy outs for players. We've opened Pandora's box so we aren't going back to amateur sports, the best we can get out of it is payment on our investments.
