Dilin Jones Shines as LSU's New RB | LSU Tigers Football News

LSU’s running game just got a major upgrade with the unexpected rise of Dilin Jones, a Wisconsin transfer who seized the starting role and dominated in their opener against Clemson. With over 100 yards and two touchdowns, Jones showcased a gritty, downhill style that broke tackles and gained extra yards — exactly what Coach Kiffin wanted. Despite pre-season hype around Harlem Berry, Jones and Stacy Gage handled the bulk of the work, proving that performance in practice trumps past accolades. With his explosive play and LSU’s run-heavy offense, Jones is on track for 1,000 rushing yards and possibly an All-SEC nod — all without being a household name before arriving in Baton Rouge.
