Jones played an outside linebacker/defensive end role at those camps in New Jersey and Washington, D.C. There is a plan for Jones to head for another camp at the end of this month. This time, he will show up at Ohio State in Columbus, as a tight end. If it seems that Jones is less than sure what position he will play in college, it may be the result of different answers he receives from recruiters at Division I schools. Jones is listening to it all. Through last week, Jones said that seven colleges have offered him a full athletic scholarship. "I'm hoping to get more,'' Jones said. "I still don't think schools know about me. My highlight tape from last season shows me as a quarterback. They don't know I'm a linebacker/defensive end. "I still have to get it out there."

Lakiescha Jones, Jamir's mother, said there is no timetable for her son's decision. "I'm not saying that Jamir is going to Notre Dame,'' she said. "We don't know." What Battaglia is just about sure of, is that the Jamir Jones you see today, will look noticeably different in the future. "He's still growing,'' Battaglia said. "His brothers grew when they were out of high school. "He could be a house (at 250 or 260 pounds)." Jamir Jones was a quarterback last fall at Aquinas. .oembed-asset-link { background: #fff; border-bottom: 1px solid #e1e1e1; } .oembed-link-anchor { display: block; clear: both; } .oembed-link-thumbnail{ float: left; padding: 14px; } .oembed-link-thumbnail img { max-width: 78px; max-height: 60px; display: block; } p.oembed-link-title { font-size: 75%; color: #009BFF; margin: 0 14px; padding-top: 12px; font-weight:normal; text-align: left; line-height: 120%; } p.oembed-link-desc { font-size: 100%; color: #666; font-weight: normal; margin: 0 14px 14px 14px; font-family: 'Futura Today Light'; text-align: left; line-height: 120%; } [URL='http://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/sports/high-school/football/2014/10/02/aquinas-jones-quarterback-role/16626475/']ROCHESTER DEMOCRAT AND CHRONICLE Aquinas' Jones in quarterback role [/URL] Aquinas quarterback Jake Zembiec, a junior and the 2013 Class AA player of the year in the state, [URL='http://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/sports/high-school/2014/10/16/jake-zembiec-aquinas-quarterback-broken-wrist/17351805/'][U]suffered a broken wrist during the second game of the season [/U][/URL]for Aquinas last fall. Jones, who was also expected to play at receiver in the Aquinas offense, replaced Zembiec. "It didn't hurt him at all (in terms of recruiting),'' Battaglia said. "People saw how unselfish he was. That's why schools have offered him without a set position. "He's ending up at the schools he wanted to be close to." [/QUOTE]
