What do you first notice about a girl? Eyes, definitely. If she’s got confidence and is looking at me. If she’s always looking down and around, it’s a turn off.

What’s your ideal date? Nothing fancy. A cute little café would be nice because it’s discreet. I like the idea of a stress free environment because then it’s easy to talk to her, like the date flew by. After the nice dinner, I would like to go to a sporting event or a night out on the town.

Embarrassing thing about yourself or a guilty pleasure: I like long walks on the beach. Seriously.

Any hidden talents? I like to play the drums and I am a closet rapper.  

What do you want to do when you get older? I’d like to be a doctor in New York City, either an ER doctor or an orthopedist. I’d also like to own a beautiful apartment by the Met.

What do you do for fun? Play nba2k with mah bros, tweet, making beats with my mouth.

If you could have a superpower what would it be? Speed-  Being fast is the key to being a good player in any sport.

If you were deserted on a desert island what three items would you bring with you and why? If I was stranded on a deserted island… hmm.. I would bring binoculars, a bow and arrow, and a girl. I’d bring the girl for my sexual pleasure. The bow and arrow for my meat and the binoculars would be used to spot the animals. Perfect!  I’d be able to live there forever.

What’s your favorite Disney movie?  Definitely Hercules. He reminds me of myself. He’s the man. Good guy. Good guy.

Do you believe in true love? Yes. True love is the soul’s recognition of its counterpart in another.

Have you ever been in love? Yes….. I think.

Do you want play basketball after college? No, because I want to be a doctor. I’ll miss it though.

Reason why he is our Campus Cutie: Hopefully you’ve been to a basketball game here at F&M because this cutie is running all up and down that court. He was named All Centennial Conference this season and last season. If you’ve seen him dunk, you’re in love! And come on, he wants to be a doctor! Not only is Jon an incredible basketball player, he is also a smart, motivated student. Nothing sexier than a man who knows what he wants. Congrats on a great season Jon, the writers at Her Campus are excited to see what you bring to the team next season, as well as where your career path leads you in the future!
