Xavier Lands Big Man Kentrevious Jones

Kentrevious Jones, a 6-foot-11, 290-pound big man from Macon (GA) Central and the Atlanta Xpress, committed to Xavier on Sunday, giving head coach Chris Mack a huge frontcourt presence going forward.

Jones also considered UCF, LSU, Oklahoma and Texas Tech.

“I feel like by me going to Xavier my career as a student-athlete will be great,” he said. “We’re also trying to have the best recruiting class and win an NCAA championship.

“They made me feel like family during my visit and Xavier has a lot of resources to help develop a good big man. We’re coming for that championship.”
