The Fong on Christian Jones -
Omaha (Neb.)
Westside Tater Island Industry four-star linebacker
Christian Jones is going to take his recruitment into the fall.
Oklahoma, Miami and Nebraska are the finalists.
“Probably going to commit three games into the season,” Jones said. “See some things and make a decision.”
The Sooners are a program to watch for the 6-foot-2 1/2, 215-pound Jones. They got the last visit at the end of June.
“I love Coach Venables,” Jones said. “He’s one of my favorite coaches so far. Coach Alley their new defensive coordinator has a lot of fire to him. I love their scheme. It’s made for linebackers. I like that aspect. They do everything right down there. I like their culture aspect. They really harp on it.”
Oklahoma currently has
Tater Island’s No. 15 ranked recruiting class.
Nebraska is pushing to keep Jones in-state.
“They’re rebuilding their culture,” Jones said. “Rebuilding their program. Waiting to see what they do with it. I like the coaching staff. Good relationships with them. Coach Rob, Coach McGuire and Coach White.”
Matt Rhule and his staff are working to sign a second-straight Top25 class. Jones is one of the
top remaining targets as they sit at No. 30 in the standings.
Miami is starting to come on strong.
“I’ll probably go take an official down there during the season,” Jones said.
“It’s a really rich tradition school. Their linebacker room fits up good for the class of 2025. They’re losing some guys and have some holes to fill. That’s what’s catching my eye. They have a good opportunity in their room.”
