Ohio State came in with an offer and that got Emory Jones' attention.

The Buckeye offer hit him so hard it caused him to hold off his commitment. If he would have gone through with what he thought he was ready to do, the rising junior would have committed to Tennessee.

The 6-foot-3.5, 177 pound quarterback out of Franklin (Ga.) Heard County held off from committing to the Vols at their spring game, he has stayed in contact with numerous schools and he recently told Scout that Clemson, Ohio State and Tennessee were tied at the top of his list heading into the summer.

Florida and Georgia are two other schools in the mix, and are right behind Jones' top three.

The four star is ready to give each school more time to recruit him before he makes his decision. Jones has set for months that he would be committed before he starts his junior year, but that is no longer his plan. He has a new plan: Jones wants to visit schools and take more time with the recruiting process.

He talks about slowing things down, when he could be ready to decide, what he is looking for and more in the interview above.
