thanks paultzman

No bother. Actually we should have a thread here.

Asked on Rivals board if anyone knew anything and Bossi responded with this-

Freakish leaper who is pretty strong. Went to prep to develop into more of a wing but was more of an undersized four man with heart and that freaky athleticism at about 6-4/6-5 when I last saw him in high school. Didn't get to see him as a prep schooler. Like a poor man's Anthony Glover last time I saw him.

Still doesn't explain why there is so little info on the kid.   You'd think a freakish athlete "poor man's Anthony Glover" would have a lot of write up - even if only projected at the mid or low D-1 level.   

Poor man's Anthony Glover is similar to what I was likening him to with the Gathers comparo.  Gathers also undersized.

Moose strikes again! Very funny man!

Not sure why, but seems likely we have a new player, genius that I am.

Maybe as a walkon? Noone is beating down his door with offers

Don't know, but guess Fratto will tell us, unless I am all wet on this.

Soo how does this affect Wood?   Because I thought we had 8 guys in this class before Jones. 

Walk on does make sense, but you gotta believe if this kid is good enough to play here than he's good enough to get a ship somewhere else that's also strong too.

Or at the very least, somewhere among D1.

Zags reporting that Jones is mulling over going to  Auburn or  Oklahoma State, but leaning to SJU.   Talk about an "under the radar" recruitment....

Yeah, but getting solid offers.  I'm all for going into this season with thoroughbreds through all roster spots.  Maybe he turns out to be a Montrezl Harrell or Shane Behanan-type if we're lucky?
