BCS Championship 2012: Alabama’s Barrett Jones Could Make His NFL Decision After BCS Title Game

The 2012 BCS Championship game between the Alabama Crimson Tide and the LSU Tigers will feature two teams oozing with NFL talent. Versatile junior left tackle Barrett Jones could wait to make his decision about staying in school another year or heading to the NFL after the Championship game. Not only has Jones excelled at the left tackle position, but he's played every position on the Tide's offensive line except for right guard, which is where he started for the 2009 and 2010 season. Just didn't want to think about the NFL right now, however.

“My mindset right now is I just want to play this game and focus on that right now,” he said. “After that, I’ll have a few days to make a final decision with my family,” Jones told the Dothan Eagle. “Obviously, I’ve been thinking about it some and talking to my family. Listing the pros and cons, that kind of thing. But, yeah, I just want to get done, see how the game turns out and decide from there.”
