Temple Adds Graduate Transfer Mike Jones
PHILADELPHIA – Temple University announced the addition of Mike Jones to the 2017 football team. Jones is a graduate of North Carolina State and has one season of eligibility remaining.
Jones (5-11, 187) is a highly decorated cornerback and returner who had an outstanding career at North Carolina Central. He earned numerous all-freshman honors in 2013, his first season out of Milford Mill Academy in Baltimore, Md., where he was a three-time all-county selection.
Following his successful freshman campaign, Jones went on to become first-team All-MEAC at both cornerback and return specialist in 2014 and 2016. He missed most of the 2015 season due to injury and received a medical redshirt.
