Like Father -- Like Son

When you turn on your television set this Saturday afternoon to watch the Irish -- keep an eye out for a young man wearing uniform number 7. His name is Tai-ler "TJ" Jones and he's a FRESHMAN STARTING WIDE RECEIVER for the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. What makes this story more special is TJ's dad -- Andre Jones, also wore #7 when he was a starting linebacker for the Irish and a member of the 1988 National Championship team. This photo was taken of the two at this year's Under Armour All-American game in Orlando. Here's a link to Irish Illustrated's interview of TJ after yesterday's practice -- and a link to a story from Irish Sports Daily back in January:
