By M. Bakas. Jones talks about some of the players he has faced this season, and how he stacked up against them. He will set up visits to Clemson, LSU, Ohio State, Miami, and "probably" Auburn. He says that everyone is even at this point.

From CaneSport...says he pretty much knows where he wants to go but is not giving out any hints. Lists the same potential visit destinations.
Miami-bound unless one of these visits just absolutely blows him away...

Big Ben Ready To Take Look At Clemson
By Phil Kornblut
OL Ben Jones (6-6 295) of Miami will make his official visit to Clemson this weekend, his first of four official visits. "I've got real strong interest in Clemson," Jones said. "I'm looking forward to meeting the coaches and having a good time. I want to major in automotive engineering. I'm excited about meeting the players at my position. If I decide to go there, I will have to play with them and be close with them." Jones will visit LSU January 18th, Ohio State on the 25th and Miami February 1st. And he's also looking at Tennessee and might try to work in a visit there. He does not have a favorite.
