Darrick Jones

Recommended Posts

If anyone is interested in a glimpse of TU class of 24 Darrick Jones, you might want to check out his Instagram page, under the name kingjones23_ (don’t forget the underscore symbol at the end. It’s open to the public. In fact, he has almost 23K followers).

If you go there, you’ll see some of his high-flying on display, which you might find interesting.

If his basketball play is anything close to his athleticism, look out CAA. That of course, remains to be seen, but let’s hope

Well if we just walk the ball up the floor with freak athletes like Jones, Mims and Timberlake and not use some form of pressure. If we’re 310 in tempo again, than we’re not using these guys right. Gibson will have a field with those guys.

Gary Durant is my cautionary tale of waiting to see how a super-athletic player translates on the court at D-1 level competition. Still, always exciting to see high-end athleticism in one of our signees.

Gary Durant didn’t play at Oak Hill and Steve Smith doesn’t take guys that are just dunkers. Now he obviously isn’t a finished product or he wouldn’t be coming here. But his ceiling is a lot higher than Fobbs. Let’s not expect him to come in and take Fobbs’ place right away. That hopefully will be Mims.

Exactly. Has potential but...

Can’t wait to see all the new Tigers this fall. Mims is another guy who has major hops. One concern I have with him is his weight, or lack thereof. Having seen him on the bench, he just looks really light-like 150-160 lbs. He’s officially listed as 185, so maybe I’m wrong
