Georgia Tech Announces Hire of Troy A.D. Brent Jones

Brent Jones, a 49ers’ tight end from 1987-97, is this year’s entrant to the franchise’s Edward J. DeBartolo Sr. Hall of Fame.
Brent and Brown were college teammates at the University of Illinois and roommates in Texas, where Brown was a practice squad linebacker for the Cowboys. "He can be a great example," Jones said.
Brent spoke as we drove to an Olive Garden restaurant in Avon, where he would meet his birth mom, Elizabeth Jones-Gati, and where a crew from ABC's "20/20" would film the reunion.
Courtney Jones, daughter of former 49ers football player Brent Jones, is a star player on the UNC Chapel Hill Women's soccer team.
Seattle Public Schools interim Superintendent Brent Jones will be the district’s next permanent leader, making him the district’s first Black male superintendent in more than two decades.
