14* PermaStubble: In the first 4 seasons. He's clean shaven by the time of Season 5.
15* PutOnABus: In early Season 5.
16* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: As a principal. Even after [[spoiler:Brooke admits to stealing an exam]], he lets her graduate because she was going into fashion & not a field where calculus would be important.
17* SharpDressedMan: Always in a nice suit.
18* TokenMinority: Unlike most characters, he's black.

21[[folder:Jake Jagielski]]
22!!'''Jake Jagielski''' ''(Portayed by Creator/BryanGreenberg)''
23[[quoteright:245:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jake_jagielski.jpg]]
24
25* AlliterativeName: '''J'''ake '''J'''agielski
26* TheBusCameBack: Halfway through Season 2, before getting back on the bus again at the end of the season. He made another last return during Season 3 for 3 episodes.
27* CleaningUpRomanticLooseEnds: His return in Season 3 is for no other reason than to make it clear that Peyton is in love with Lucas.
28* TheGenericGuy: Whilst the other characters all have their quirks, Jake is really just there to give Lucas an ally on the basketball team & serve as a RomanticFalseLead for Peyton, with no real characterization beyond the fact that he's a nice guy who happens to have a daughter.
29* GoodParents: For his baby daughter Jenny.
30* LovableJock: In season 1, when he was a player for the Ravens. The only one in the team actually, since he was surrounded by {{Jerk Jock}}s.
31* NiceGuy: He's the only one in the team who didn't steal a school bus in the pilot, or go along with Nathan's "hazing" of Lucas after he joined the Ravens.
32* OnlySaneMan: In the basketball team. Also when he's around his bitchy ex-girlfriend Nicki.
33* PutOnABus: At the end of Season 1 and again at the end of Season 2.
34* RomanticFalseLead: Begins a relationship with Peyton in Season 2, however by the end of Season 3 it's clear that Jake was never more than a replacement for Lucas.
35* SecondEpisodeIntroduction: In a way - whilst Jake is named in the Pilot & appears briefly, he isn't properly introduced until the following episode.
36* TokenGoodTeammate: Especially in season 1 where Nathan and most of the Raven were still Grade A {{Jerk Jock}}s.

39[[folder:Junk and Fergie]]
40!!'''Ferguson "Fergie" Thompson''' and '''John "Junk" Moretti''' ''(Portrayed by Creator/VaughnWilson and Creator/CullenMoss)''
41
42* DemotedToExtra: Whilst never prominent characters, Junk and Fergie was given stuff to do during Seasons 1 & 2. By Season 9, he had been reduced to background character.
43* FlatCharacter: They have no real role in the story. They are just...there. Save for a random episode in Season 7 where they babysit Jamie, and their frequent appearances on Mouth and Skills' couch playing video games, what real contribution did they have to the show? This is ultimately lampshaded during the cast of the movie adaptation of Lucas' book, as it's revealed that in order to streamline the cast for the film, Junk & Fergie's characters have been cut.
44* GirlfriendInCanada: Junk claims to have one in response to Skills' "Four years of high school. Zero girlfriends for Junk and Fergie" comment in the fourth season finale.
45* HiddenDepths: Junk calls a crisis hotline during season 8, and admits that he's displeased with his life due to it seemingly going nowhere.
46* InSeriesNickname: Fergilicious for Fergie. Only he refers to himself with that, though.
47* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: No one ever calls Junk by his real name, John. Fergie is called "Ferguson" twice during the course of the show - once whilst teasing Lucas over forgetting his roots after not coming down to the River Court for a while, and when his name is called out during graduation.
48* {{Satellite Character}}s: To Lucas, Mouth and Skills. Which is really saying something since Skills is kind of a SatelliteCharacter himself.
49* ThoseTwoGuys: Almost always appear together. In the Season 4 finale, there's a shot of the 12 graduating seniors paired up - Lucas & Peyton, Nathan & Haley, Brooke & Chase, Rachel & Mouth, Bevin & Skills, and... Junk & Fergie. Likewise, at Lucas & Peyton's wedding, there's a brief series of shots showing the various couples who aren't married; namely Mia & Chase, Mouth & Millie, Skills & Lauren, and again, Junk & Fergie.

55
56* AmbiguouslyBi: He likes girls (he married [[spoiler:Bevin]] in the the four-year jump) but he also seems [[HoYay way too devoted]] to Nathan.
57* AscendedExtra: Was originally there to serve as Nathan's friend on the Ravens. After Jake was put on a bus, Tim rose in prominence.
58* BookDumb: He departed the school mid way through his senior year to go to a special school for "slower students".
59* BumblingSidekick: To Nathan in the first episodes.
60* TheBusCameBack: In a rare subversion of ChuckCunninghamSyndrome, Tim returned in Episode 5x09, "For Tonight You're Only Here To Know"
61* ButtMonkey: He's often made fun of for his stupidity.
62* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Disappears without explanation midway through Season 3; It's revealed a full season later that he'd transferred out of Tree Hill High.
63* DumbJock: Like his friend Nathan, he was in the Tree Hill High basketball team, and unlike the other well known jocks on the show, he plays the trope very straight.
64* TheLancer: To Nathan.
65* PhraseCatcher: "Just say [Whatever Tim just said, but straight forward], Tim."
66* PluckyComicRelief: After Nathan married Haley, this becomes Tim's main role in each of his appearances.
67* PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: Much to Nathan' irritation.
68* ThirdWheel: As Nathan becomes closer to Haley & Lucas, Tim starts to become this.

72!!'''Jimmy Edwards''' ''(Portrayed by Creator/ColinFickes)''
73[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jimmy_edwards.jpg]]
74
75* ADeathInTheLimelight: [[spoiler:Jimmy only appears in two episodes before season 3...And then there's "With Tired Eyes, Tired Minds, Tired Souls, We Slept", hands down the most tragic and tear-jerking episode of the entire show. Out of all people who died during the show, Jimmy's death is probably the most shocking one (tied with Keith's death, from the same episode).]]
76* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: With terrible and tragic consequences. The reasons why Jimmy starts hating school, feeling ignored by everyone, even Mouth and his other close friends.
77* BackForTheDead: [[spoiler:When his character come back in season 3.]]
78* TheBusCameBack: In Episode 3x15, "Just Watch The Fireworks"
79* ChekhovsGunman: Disappearing after the first two episodes in season 1, he made a huge impact to the show's story upon his return in season 3. [[spoiler:As an actual [[IncrediblyLamePun guman]], no less.]]
80* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Disappears without explanation after the first two episodes. [[DeconstructedTrope Deconstructed]] in season 3, as [[spoiler:Jimmy became very bitter over being abandonned by his friends from the River Court, and began hating the entirety of the Tree Hill High student body because they didn't notice when he accidentally overdosed & was missing from school for several weeks]].
81* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Upon seeing the unconcious & bleeding out Peyton, Jimmy loses all hope that things could get better & puts his gun to his chest before pulling the trigger.]]
82* ForgottenFallenFriend: Averted, [[spoiler:After his death in Episode 3x16, Jimmy is referred to repeatedly over the following six seasons, his death greatly affecting Mouth]].
83* GoMadFromTheRevelation: [[spoiler:The release of the time capsule pretty much caused his rampage.]]
84* MistakenForMurderer: [[spoiler:After his death, nonetheless. As seen below, everyone thought Jimmy killed Keith, before committing suicide.]]
85* SmallRoleBigImpact: Only appears in four episodes, but saying he has a big impact on the show is an understatement. After [[spoiler:his death]], he's still repeatedly mentioned by Mouth or other characters even in later seasons.
86* SympatheticMurderer: Not really. But after [[spoiler:the school shooting]] he was considered this way by most people when they still didn't know that [[spoiler:''Dan'', not Jimmy, was the one who killed Keith.]]
87* TookALevelInCynic: It's easy to distinguish this if you compare his appearances in seasons 1 and his character in season 3.
88* WalkingSpoiler: Jimmy's ADayInTheLimelight episode is the most important and shocking episode of the show. Everything about it is a spoiler.
89* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: [[spoiler:Jimmy brought a gun to school and held some students hostage. Just watch the episode and ''try'' not to cry or feel bad for him. And there's the DownerEnding...]]

97* LongBusTrip: Doesn't appear at all during the second season, and isn't seen again after the third season - despite his daughter suffering from PTSD after being stalked by Psycho!Derek, graduating from high school, [[spoiler:getting married, having a daughter & nearly dying in the birth]], even though Larry's job as captain of a dredging vessel means he could have popped back up at any time.
98* PapaWolf: To Peyton, largely due to work meaning he's away for large periods of time & the death of his wife when Peyton was a little girl.
99* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Trusts his teenaged daughter to take of herself whilst he's away at sea, and allows Brooke to move in during season 3.
100* ShipperOnDeck: During the first season, he's very much aware of his daughter's attraction to Lucas, and at one point invites him to join them whilst he was having dinner with Peyton at Karen's Cafe, even justifying his actions as "Taking care of my little girl."

107
108* {{Determinator}}: Nicki is a villainous example, when it comes to her daughter, Jenny.

121* AlliterativeName: '''J'''immy '''J'''ames

169
170* AmbiguousSituation: When he walks out on Anna emotional and in disgust after she comes out, it's left up in the air whether he's doing so because he doesn't accept her or if he's ashamed of his treatment of her. Although his prior behavior points more towards the former, his final scene of the episode, and by extension the series, shows him looking longingly at the locker he vandalized before he walks off for good, possibly hinting he reflected. Ultimately, the next episode marks Anna's last appearance and the true nature of his reaction is not mentioned.
171* BigBrotherInstinct: Towards Anna initially, when he believed that her bisexuality was only a rumor. He changed his mind anyway after her ComingOutStory.

253
254%%* TheCharmer
255* CoolUncle: Because he was roughly 12 when he became an Uncle, his relationship with Nathan comes off more like an older brother & significantly younger brother. He even makes an effort to have a relationship with Lucas, ''who actually isn't related to him in any way''.
