Baylor has landed a commitment from 2019 defensive end prospect Matt Jones‍ out of Odessa Permian. Jones had offers from Illinois, Texas Tech, and Nevada among others.

Jones (6-3, 227) played linebacker for Permian a year ago but will move to the defensive end position for his senior season. He is set to play the DE RUSH end position for the Bears.

Jones tallied a SPARQ score of 111.96 at the Dallas Regional of The Opening which included a 4.79 40-yard dash and a 4.20 shuttle time.

He is the first defensive end prospect committed for Baylor's 2019 class.

Kid is definitely a DE in the making. After a RS year, and gaining 20/25 pounds, could end up being a two-year starter.

If he is first commitment for DE, as your article states, then where do they project DE Harrison White from Spring to play?

White looks like a OT to me, for certain.

That's two commits from Odessa Permian players this week. I don't recall Baylor as being a real magnet for Permian players in the past, am I wrong about that or is this perhaps the start of a new trend?

Didn't we get their RB from around 1992? He destroyed Waco High in the playoffs, when Coach Tusa lost a coin flip for home field.

This was a long time ago, so my memory could be wrong.
