Jones quarterbacked Yale to 6 - 0 and 12 - 0 victories versus Harvard as a junior and senior, respectively, in 1906 and 1907. Yale finished with 9 - 0 - 1 records both years, and he was named an All-American both seasons. Before the 1925 Game, Jones intoned famously, "Gentlemen, you are about to play football against Harvard. Never again may you do something so important. " That contest ended in a scoreless tie. Jones's brother was Howard Jones, who coached at Yale, Iowa, and Duke, but more famously at USC.
