With Andrew Wiggins gone, Tyus Jones takes over top spot in class of 2014
Posted Oct 27, 2012
Tyus Jones didn’t need any rankings to tell him that he was the No. 1 player in the 2014 class. “I already feel like I’m the best player in the country,” said Jones, a point guard at Apple Valley (Apple Valley, Minn.). “It’s definitely not a cocky thing or trying to disrespect anyone else, it’s just a mindset that I have.”
