Jayden Jones was offered by Brian Michalowski in mid-June, when he was still a North Texas commit. In August, he re-opened his commitment, which from when he pledged to the Mean Green up to that point, had intensified.
UTSA, UNLV and Houston Baptist were the offers he'd originally brought in, but over the summer, he started receiving more attention from bigger programs, as the Buffs in June followed Washington State, Illinois and Kansas in offering him, while Arizona got in the mix in the last week of the month.
Now, the 6-foot-5, 230-pound prospect from Arlington (Pantego Christian Academy) has narrowed it down to four: UNT, the Buffs, Wazzu and Kansas. He plans to commit on Sept. 19.
Could see Jones becoming a three-star recruit when all is said and done after his senior season. Definitely has a pop coming off the line of scrimmage. Would like to see more of what he can do with his hand in the dirt to gauge how multiple he is at the DE position but overall, don't just look at two stars and write him off. Jones has been getting solid P5 attention for a few months now for a reason.
Pantego Christian Academy plays at the 5A level within the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS).
