I am a new owner of a 96 XJ. It over heated and now will crank, but wont start. There is no coolant leaks. There is no coolant in the oil, no oil in the coolant. There is coolant in the intake. To me this sounds like a blown head gasket. Any thoughts?

Yes sounds about right. Head gasket or cracked/warped head. Wouldnt try and start it anymore if there is water in the intake.
