    Anyone remember Kevin Jones at West Virginia ? Early 2010ish range?

    Kevin shot more from the outside than Tyrique but they remind me of each other. Beasts.
    Run the table.

    Apparently Tyrique rolled his ankle late in the game and was playing with a lot of pain. Any news if he plays tmrw?

    Hopefully he can jump off of one foot.

    Great news for
    @XavierMBB
    tonight: Senior Tyrique Jones is good to go, per Travis Steele. That day off between games must have alleviated his ankle-roll issue.


    This is indeed great news!

    This is a thread I thought needed to be dug up and dusted off.

    The senior leadership has officially arrived. He is doing what he knows needs to be done and his teammates are responding.

    Way to go Mr. Jones!

    You know, I've never liked the title of this thread.

    There's something uncomfortable about the reference to a Black man being described as behaving as if he were "unchained."

    Discuss.

    Unleashed? Freed? Unhinged? Unshackled?


    There is absolutely no racial undertones stated or implied with what was written. Everyone is so damn sensitive and tries to assign meaning when there is none.

    What does it mean? It means hes a beast!

    I think it's because Tyrique's middle name is Django.

    Well, there might not be any meaning to a white guy from Mason, but if you really think there are "absolutely no racial undertones" to "unleashed" "unchained" or "unshackled" when used to describe a Black person, you might need a reflection session.

    Again, you are assigning meaning when there is none. The context of the conversation is Tyrique being beastly, unstoppable. In this context, unchained is perfectly fine.

    And now Im white because I live in Mason... Ill be sure to let my parents know.
