"Jones is a 310-pound freshman from Jacksonville, Fla. Duval County, Fla., records show Jones pleaded guilty in July 2010 to cocaine possession and was sentenced to 60 days probation.

Brown said coach Ron Zook is aware of that conviction"

Intrepid Reader BC: Sounds like a typical Ron Zook/Bruce Weber recruit. DARN THAT RON GUENTHER!
