Freshman forward Jalen Jones


Head coach Matt Doherty

[ClickClack]

Even though Doh sucks as a coach, he is so much more likable than June.

Jalen is going to be a big time player for us the next 3 years.

[Higher Authority]

Jalen sounds like a really good kid, and he has looked better in every game recently. Hope the progress continues -- he played like a man possessed yesterday.
