The friendship between quarterback Samaj Jones and receiver Elijah Jones started on the football field. Now they plan to join the Bearcats together next fall. 'We’re like brothers.'
When St. Joseph’s Prep quarterback Samaj Jones revealed his commitment date of July 2, teammate Elijah Jones knew it was time to ask. The receiver texted Samaj, looking to get any insider info about which college he would select, but Samaj stood firm.
And when July 2 came around, Samaj Jones finally let everyone know that he was heading to Cincinnati. “We were all pretty close because we had to stick together as underclassmen and [the] six or seven freshmen that were on the varsity team,” Samaj said over the phone. “So ever since then, we’ve been like really tight.”
“It helps build trust, just hanging out so much, especially on and off the field because you get to know someone deeper than football, and [those are] things that chemistry brings,” Samaj said. “When he made the move, I’m sitting here thinking like, ‘I can’t leave him hanging,’ ” Samaj added. “I felt like I’ve got to pay my dues and my respect to be with my bro, and it’s a good place for the both of us.”
