[nd1]

Great freebie on ISD: Kelly Meet Jones' Family, Friends

Results on the field may have been disappointing this past year, but Coach Kelly sure knows how to make the recruits feel like family.

very good article and glad to see the coaches reaching out to kids at boy and girls club.

33 REBOUNDS???!!! Is he playing against midgets?

haha i dont think so...he played a inner city team :X but i guess every1 is a midget compared to him

 

[military_irish]

Um why no discussion about him possibly contributing to the basketball team? 33 rebounds is insane.

 

[NDhoosier]

even so, how do you get 33 Rebounds? Did he get EVERY rebound the entire game??? Hopefully 33 Rebounds transfers to like 3 sacks/game on the football field.

 

[GUknights75]

its almost as impressive as Shenise Johnson(from my HS) scoring 42 points and 30 rebounds in her 3rd straight NYS championship..Girl is a beast! ACC player of the year!

i actually meant that the team he played was actually pretty good, leader of their league, and have good length...which makes it even more crazy!

No. He responded to someone talking about PSU rumors.

haven't heard any Jarron Jones rumors @fuzz3307: @rivalsmike What are you hearing about Jarron Jones PSU rumors?

"Haven't heard any" was a reply to someone tweeting him.

Going to be a long day

 

[zbikowski88]

he hasn't heard any rumors

He's lookin for hits.

JJ will play DLine for us, so that rumor is debunked.

Oh, and btw f*ck rivals

 

[Rhode Irish]

What? I can't wait for tomorrow to be over and done with. I like to know the players ND has coming in, but there is way too much nonsense to sift through to make following it very enjoyable.

 

[Count_on_Me]

Thank God!! I was having a panic attack.. My bad

 

[gkIrish]

Does this happen every year on NSD eve? I hadn't followed closely until last fall. STOP THE MADNESS

 

[koonja]

If the rumor was JJ is looking at OSU, I'd be more interested. No way he'd go back to PSU. They've only lost recruits and fired their coach since he was committed there. RIP Joe!

lol at both of these. I'm an alum and have been a die-hard fan for years, but this is the first year I've followed recruting closely and now I wish I had left it alone. I seriously loathe myself for getting this worked up about where a few 17 year olds decide to go to college ... but can't help it.

Posts like this are stupid and don't need to be posted.

 

[BeauBenken]

Jarron went from "very solid" to "definite" in his commitment to ND just a week ago.

He just did or will soon do an interview with TurningPoint.

He isn't going anywhere. That's the worst rumor I've ever heard. lol

 

[AdmiralBackhand]

He loved watching ND beat Syracuse.

 

[GUknights75]

If you guys really want me to, I can call 1 of his brothers and find out..(seriously) but I really don't need to....

Please don't, leave him be. There is nothing to worry about for either Deontay or Jarron. Everyone needs to calm down and use some common sense.

Before you start freak outs like this, please accurately relay information. Rivals mike simply replied no....

I wasn't being serious that I would but that I could.....im friends and teamates with both of his older brothers....There's absolutly NOTHING to worry about here, inside info or not, he will be trading his Lil' Irish jersey for a FIGHTING IRISH one.

That's great to hear, thanks for sharing. Jarron should be a vital part of a potentially dominate d-line for the next several years.

From Inside The Irish. Another huge member of a tremendous class.


JARRON JONES
High School: Aquinas Institute — Rochester, New York
Measureables: Six-foot-seven, 307-pounds
Other major offers: Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Florida State, Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State
Fun Fact: Named first-team All-State, Jones’ 5-foot-7 teammate, running back Billy Lombardi, was named state player of the year.
On choosing Notre Dame: ”It’s perfect for me,” Jones told Irish Illustrated. “Notre Dame is just like my high school, it’s not even a big transition. The small class sizes, just typical high school to college. It’s not going to be an adjustment in atmosphere and it’s going to be something that I’m already used to.”
What he’ll bring to the defense: Jones is another one of those mold-busting recruits that have been attracted to Brian Kelly’s program, joining guys like Tuitt and Niklas as super-sized recruits. Jones might not be as physically ready to dominate as the two previously mentioned, but he won’t need to be. Ultra athletic, Jones could just as easily be a left tackle of the future, but he’ll get his first shot as a jumbo 3-4 defensive end. Another one of those recruits Notre Dame never seemed to land, Jones was initially committed to Penn State before the Irish staff flipped him in August.

I am still excited that we got a recruit with this kinda offer list.
