| Da'Mario Jones (#11) |
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 195 lbs.
High school: Westland (MI) John Glenn
Position: Wide receiver
Class: Freshman
Jersey number: #14
Last year: Jones was a senior in high school. I gave him a TTB Rating of 81.
Jones committed to Michigan at the end of October 2012 after previously having been pursued by smaller schools like Bowling Green, Toledo, etc. Near the end of the recruiting cycle, coaches from schools like Georgia came through his high school, but he said no thanks to their overtures.
As the most athletic receiver in the freshman class - on a team that lacks a little bit of athleticism at the position - I think Jones is the most likely of the group to play. He has good speed and decent change of direction, so it will depend on how quickly he can pick up the offense. If the coaches are looking for a guy to block, they might go with Jaron Dukes, but if they want a freshman to be involved with the passing offense, Jones appears to be the most ready. I don't think he'll be a superstar right off the bat, but I believe he's the best wide receiver in the freshman class and could catch a few passes this year.
Prediction: Backup wide receiver; 3 receptions, 30 yards
