Minnesota, Kansas, Duke and Baylor are the four schools believed to be remaining on Tyus Jones’ list of potential college suitors, according to Rivals.com.
However, a tweet makes it look like Jones — the No. 4 overall recruit in the country, according to ESPN — has narrowed his list to two.
Source close to Tyus Jones says he is down to Duke & Kansas. The family plans to meet tomorrow night & have a decision by the weekend.

Sources tell us that Kansas leads in the Tyus Jones/Okafor recruitment even after the Duke visit this weekend.

Notice how the Gophers and Baylor aren’t on the list. That isn’t a huge surprise, but it is the possible hard truth that fans have been dreading since the Apple Valley point guard starting making a name for himself as an eighth grader.
Jones took an official visit to Duke last week.
Back home in minny. Had a good visit to Duke, thanks to the fans for showing love.

As Rant Sports points out, Jones has planned on announcing his choice in early November for quite some time now.
