“Coach Jake (Casteel) was just telling me how he liked my tape and how I would fit into their defense,” Jones said.

Last season as a sophomore, Jones racked up 10 sacks with 61 tackles. In his freshman season, he had 11 sacks and 45 tackles.

“I would describe myself very quick and always hungry to make a play and versatile,” Jones said.

“I don’t really know much but it’s looks like great program play for and I know one of Miami natives that played there Geno Smith and plays there my guy Wilnerson Telemaque,” Jones said.
