NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones took advantage of spring break to head west to California. Not for a trip to the beach.
He wanted to get some extra work in.
Jones spent six days on Stanford’s campus working with quarterback guru George Whitfield Jr., who mentored Cam Newton last summer leading up to his selection as the top pick in the NFL draft. Clemson’s Tajh Boyd also worked out with Whitfield while Jones was there, and Jones says he ran into projected No. 1 pick Andrew Luck after his workouts.
After deciding to stay in school for his senior season, Jones has been trying to work on how high he holds the ball before he throws it and improving his movement in the pocket.
