I learned tonight that Denison Yellow Jacket
running back D.J. Jones has committed to play
his college football at Texas A&M next year.
The news was posted on Rivals.com.
Jones is the all-time leading rusher at Denison
High School with 2,247 yards in 2009 and 2,646
yards in 2008. He was one of the main reasons
Denison went to the semi-final round of the
high school playoffs this past season. Denison
finished the 2009 season with a record of 12
wins and 2 losses. It was the most successful
season for Denison High School since 2000.
Jones was heavily recruited by at least seven
major colleges, and he will apparently turn down
the offers of Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma State,
Arkansas, and S.M.U. among others.
Jones is the first to announce his college
intentions from this years team. There are
several more players expected to move on to
college football.
