Madison Central Tight end Micah Jones announced his commitment to Florida.
Jones, a three-star recruit, said “Home” in a social media post on Friday.
“I’m very proud of Micah and his family,” Madison Central coach Toby Collums told the Clarion Ledger. “Obviously it’s very important to have one of your children have the opportunity to enroll in an SEC school. It’s even more rewarding when it comes from a kid like Micah, who is a great teammate and leader within his team.”
The 247Sports Composite has Jones, a 6-foot-2, 245-pound receiver, as the No. 28 tight end overall and the No. 15 recruit in Mississippi for the 2025 class.

Jones chose Florida over Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Arkansas and LSU. He will join 2023 Mississippi Gatorade Player of the Year Kahnen Daniels, who is currently enrolled at Florida for his freshman season.
Last season, Jones recorded 168 yards with one touchdown and helped Madison Central go 8-5. Finished one game shy of the MHSAA Class 7A state final after losing to Starkville 35-15 in the third round.
