What’d recruiting sites say?: Three stars from all recruiting sites.

Tweets of wonder: His Twitter is 99% retweets, so we’re pulling from way back since Jonas probably feels the same way heading into this year.

What movie would Dino recommend for him: Jonas’s hard-hitting reputation garners a recommendation to watch “Pain and Gain.” Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Mark Whalberg are shredded for this film and dole out their fair share of knockout hits.

Interesting nugget o’interest: Jonas was ESPN’s 29th-best safety in the 2018 class, despite missing his senior season with an ACL injury.
