Indiana Basketball Transfer Curtis Jones commits to Oklahoma State

Mike Boynton lands a solid transfer in the form of a former highly-touted recruit, Curtis Jones.

NCAA Basketball: Indiana at Iowa Jeffrey Becker-USA TODAY Sports

Former Indiana guard Curtis Jones told ESPN Monday that he’s headed to Stillwater, and will join the Oklahoma State Cowboys.

Jones had a 38.3 field goal percentage and shot 38.1 percent from the 3-point line last season at Indiana. Jones’ career started with 15 points in a win against the university of Kansas his Freshman year.

Jones stands at 6’4”, 170 pounds. With size like that alongside Michael Weathers who will be eligible next season, the Cowboys should have a lengthy, uber-athletic backcourt.

The highly-touted transfer was a four-star guard out of high school, holding offers from teams like Indiana, Georgetown, Maryland, Xavier, Texas Tech, and more. Former Hoosier head man Tom Crean said this about Jones during the recruiting process.

When I saw him play about a month ago, I was really impressed with his demeanor. He’s going to have to get stronger. He knows that and he’s going to really have to deal with the rigors of this level, but the quickness, the quick-twitch, the mindset, that stuff’s all there."
