But first he has to be willing to ask for and accept help. And I think it's Ruby who will get him there.

Recall her conversation with Ozpin in Episode 1: she was, in her own words, "garbage" until her uncle pointed her in the right direction. She probably relates to his situation better than anyone else in the cast - and more to the point, can communicate it to him in terms he'll understand, something Pyrrha couldn't manage despite her best efforts. I do like that idea of both team RWBY and JNPR helping out with Jaune's / Velvet's bullying problem with Cardin as well as helping out with Jaune to increse his skill levels but i'm thinking it will go along the lines of that Jaune is going to suffer with Cardin for a few episodes until his skills become better due to the help he recieves, then challenges Cardin at the Vytal festival and defeats and publicly shames him in an epic battle. Now that would be cool.
