“He was in there the whole time watching me and observing me by recording some of the workouts I did,” Jones said. “It was a blessing to see my hometown team in person and for him to be up that early to see me. That’s a lot of love, too.

“That’s showing me that they’re really interested in me, and that’s very early for a person to be up. I mean, I just like it. It means a lot to me and it shows that I am being recognized by one of the best schools.”
