What a joke. Screw him…no loyalty to the ONE program who kept their scholarship open for you. You punk! And tell your dad he is a punk too. Bring the Twin cities media to your piece of crap city for your pizza parlor announcement! Two words buddy, Rodney Williams

Well that’s (maybe) too bad. We won’t know for sure for a couple of years most likely.

I’m sure his decision was based more on potential playing time right away more than anything else. That Hoosier team is going to be in trouble and he’ll get a chance to play a ton from the get go. The Gophers, on the other hand, will have a strong roster next year and he may or not be able to earn much PT.

Anyone who gets angry or makes fun of a high school kid for not choosing their school to play a sport at is an idiot

Fortunately, no one in their right mind reads these things.

Wasn’t it THIS blog who was all but certain that Jones would choose the Gophers instead of Indiana?
