Kentrevious Jones

[XUMIOH12]

whether he is eligible to play or not next year, I am just hoping that he can at least be at Xavier and able to work out/practice with the team and at least use it as a true RS year.

this thread has really been derailed

We desperately need the height next year.

Any updates on this kid? Play or No? Oh, NM, just read MOR's post in the golf outing thread.

Reading thru this thread is pretty funny tho.

Well school starts soon correct? I'm guessing his status resolves itself in the next 6-7 days?

I thought the word was that he was finishing a High School class or two and would be ready by semester start. He would still need to be cleared.

Do we really want another slow moving slow learner of any size? I've been on the case about recruiting big men, but Mack's entire plan of attack on defense is based on quick witted hedging and switching.

While I hear what you're saying, X usually has one big guy on the floor at all times for rebounding and defense. X also loses 2 of their 3 centers after this year.

Granted, he's not the quickest right now.. But from everything I've read on him is that he was a late bloomer. Mack took him cause of his potential. And the reports say he does have pretty good foot work and great hands. Give him a year on X's campus sitting out to cut weight and get his conditioning right and it'll be a different story. Everything I've seen is that he has a great attitude too and very motivated. Let the chips fall and get working towards 2018-2019

I think he has to have a certain grade in a certain class he was taking this summer. My understanding is if he gets the grade, he will enter school and eligible immediately. He will most likely redshirt if he does make it to campus, but as others have said, we will know if Big Kent shows up on the first day of school.

Mack loves this kid. If he makes it to campus, he will be groomed for the future.
