The Amazing Mr. Jones

[IM4X]

A new thread about this marvelous young man and his magnificent play.

Looking forward to another double-double from the senior leader tomorrow.

He has been ridiculous on the boards. Last five games: 13, 13, 15, 18, 18

I think he might be ready for 20 tomorrow.

He now leads the BE with 10.8 per game

Tyrique has truly been Unchained with his play lately. Should he get us to a Final 4, they might retire his number someday. I would think he picks to go as number 4 (Final 4) vs number 0 which he wore for 3 years. Seems he unchained his number too

Isn't there a song about him, goes something like.... Mr. Mr Jooones, Mr Jones, Mr Jones, Mr Jones...you gotta thinng goin on.

this is playing into racist tropes about the "magical black man" and stereotypes about african americans in the entertainment business. please close the thread

Yes, in my newly learned requirement to only focus on race (amongst other differences in an attempt to divide us) I now see the associations between “amazing” and voodoo. I have learned to be offended. Close this thread immediately or I will express my disgust in attempt to shame you into feeling the same guilt that I now suffer. Henceforth I shall be known as “Muskie in east coast”.

It seems there is a troll trying to derail the Tyrique Unchained thread or any thread springing from that one. This is a Xavier Men's Basketball Forum. Hoping #0, oh - #4 this year has a good game this Saturday vs Providence. His performance is secondary to simply winning the game. LET'S PLAY AND TALK BASKETBALL

Tyrique has been dominating the glass! Keep it up big fella!

[whopper]

great career by him and Q, we shall see about Scruggs and Marshall for next year. Damn we had our final 4 shot and nobody(myself included) has gotten over it. They give us everything they have and I appreciate it. They are human and have limitations at times but nobody knows it more than they do.

[IM4X]

He has 13, 13, 15, 18, 18, and now 18 again.

Dont think he’s peaked yet. 20 rebounds are coming. Wait for it.

It's been great to see him make this progress into his senior season (now just need to hit a few more free throws!). Hope he's able to make some good dough playing overseas.

I don’t know if this video was posted somewhere else, but frankly I don’t really care.

This guy represents X as well as any player in the past 20 years (and maybe longer).

There is so much to love about Tyrique. A really good kid with an incredible smile and a wonderful role model (his mother). Someone who had such a devastating tragedy at such a young age and yet still feels truly blessed for everything he has and shows it by giving his absolutely best. What an amazing guy he is. So proud of this guy and so thrilled he is here at X.

Happy Valentine’s Day to you Mr. Jones (the heart of this x team) and your amazing mother.

Wow thanks for sharing. Someone needs to make sure his mom is at the game Monday. Hopefully Tyrique gets a shot at the tourney this year. He deserves it.

[bleedXblue]

He has been a huge asset to this program in several different ways. I'm extremely happy for him, hes going to play somewhere next year for sure. He will be sorely missed next year!

The other thread title was cringeworthy for years. Guess that makes me soft.


I was thinking the other day about the impact of Uconn joining the BE. Solid chance a guy like Jones may go there in the future. Hope we can still have a presence in the NY/NJ/CT region. It's been great for us
