Grandson of Jim Jones restoring the Jones name

Rob Jones feels no stigma about being the grandson of cult leader Jim Jones, who 30 years ago this November led more than 900 of his followers in a mass suicide in a South American jungle. When road crowds taunt him about drinking Kool-Aid, he turns it into motivation. He speaks openly about his family's history.

"The reason I do is just to change the Jones name, you know, to keep a good association with the name now,'' said Jones, whose underdog Toreros will face Connecticut on Friday in a first-round game in Tampa, Fla.
