    The Amazing Mr. Jones

    A new thread about this marvelous young man and his magnificent play.

    Looking forward to another double-double from the senior leader tomorrow.

    He has been ridiculous on the boards. Last five games: 13, 13, 15, 18, 18

    I think he might be ready for 20 tomorrow.

    He now leads the BE with 10.8 per game

    Tyrique has truly been Unchained with his play lately. Should he get us to a Final 4, they might retire his number someday. I would think he picks to go as number 4 (Final 4) vs number 0 which he wore for 3 years. Seems he unchained his number too

    Yes, in my newly learned requirement to only focus on race (amongst other differences in an attempt to divide us) I now see the associations between “amazing” and voodoo. I have learned to be offended. Close this thread immediately or I will express my disgust in attempt to shame you into feeling the same guilt that I now suffer. Henceforth I shall be known as “Muskie in east coast”.

    It seems there is a troll trying to derail the Tyrique Unchained thread or any thread springing from that one. This is a Xavier Men's Basketball Forum. Hoping #0, oh - #4 this year has a good game this Saturday vs Providence. His performance is secondary to simply winning the game. LET'S PLAY AND TALK BASKETBALL

    The other thread title was cringeworthy for years. Guess that makes me soft.


    I was thinking the other day about the impact of Uconn joining the BE. Solid chance a guy like Jones may go there in the future. Hope we can still have a presence in the NY/NJ/CT region. It's been great for us
