It appears former Tiger Antwann Jones has found a home w/ the Creighton Blue Jays. I think it’s s good fit. Hopefully he takes full advantage of the opportunity. Good on him!

Nothing looks official yet. This is the source of the news.
I'll wait until Jones confirms it himself to pop the champagne.

That said I like this get. He might walk in and be the best "put your head down and get to the basket" guy on the roster. There's also clearly stuff he'll need to improve, but the slashing ability adds another dimension to the roster going forward. We play a system that spreads the floor but really haven't taken advantage of the driving lines that that style opens up. Now we have a player that looks more than capable.

No. All points are wrong.
1. He was a 2018 recruit.
2. He was a 4 star.
3. He was the #17 ranked SG in the country by ESPN.

I read one interview with Penny where he said Jones got too down on himself when he missed shots. That isn’t a discipline issue! Macs been good with kids with confidence issues in the past. I like this get and think he will give us a nice extra weapon.

Sorry, should have been more specific. When the ESPN60 Rankings came out in 2016 for the class of 2018. He was the number 1 ranked SG.
