Jim Harbaugh signed his first player as Michigan head coach Saturday, with Florida 3-Star Reuben Jones committing his future to the Wolverines. Who is Reuben Jones? Let's take a look at what he brings to UM's incoming class...
Vital Stats
Position: Strong-Side Defensive End
Hometown: Lakeland, FL
High School: Lake Gibson HS
Key Facts:
- Per 247 Sports, Jones is the #44 DE in the Class of 2015 and the #102 player in the state of Florida
- Jones chose Michigan over Louisville, Michigan State, Nebraska, Iowa, Mizzou and Central Florida. He had received 25 offers in total.
- The Wolverines had been recruiting Jones since before Harbaugh came on board, with D.J. Durkin leading the charge.
- Jones is 6'3, 223 lbs and runs a 4.89 40-yard-dash.
- Jones is just the second defensive commit in Michigan's class - 4-Star safety Tyree Kinnel is the only other defensive player currently committed. Don't expect that to stay the case for long.
