CINCINNATI — The football season is halfway over, leading us into another Recruiting Roundup this week. We start with a lost commitment for UC football from three-star 2026 cornerback Brody Jones.

He is flipping to Missouri.

The Fayetteville (Arkansas) star chose Cincinnati in June over offers from Memphis and North Texas. He is ranked 73rd among safeties nationally and the 11th-best player in Arkansas. Jones was the team's 11th commitment and a top-five rated talent in the class on 247 Sports.

We move on to a 2026 offer for three-star Cardinal Ritter College Prep (Missouri) defensive tackle Jocques Felix.
