USF junior G Dominique Jones said “no comment’’ when asked last night if he was coming back next season.

On his Facebook page today, Jones posted “i should have kept it but i aint tripping…its time to make money now.’‘

With 8 seconds left and USF trailing by a point against N.C. State, Jones passed the ball instead of taking the final shot in the Bulls’ 58-57 loss to N.C. State in the first round of the NIT.

After leaving the postgame press conference, it sure seemed like Jones had played his last game for the Bulls. He was stopped by athletic director Doug Woolard outside the media room and Woolard gave him a hug and spoke briefly to Jones.

As Jones walked back onto the court toward the locker room, I asked how long his “no comment” comment would last. He just smiled and said “no comment,’’ and then lamented how tough of a loss Tuesday night was.

If Jones does make it official soon, most NBA draft projections projections have him going late in the first round or early second round, although there are questions about Jones’ shooting and his size.

At 6-foot-4, he is considered a combo guard, but not a good enough ball-handler to play the point in the NBA or big enough to defend most NBA 2-guards and small forwards.

Stay tuned.
