SJU Portal Targets

[Amaseinyourface]

Agree. Would gladly take either but Jackson seems very similar to Sanan. Both averaged about 1 assist last year from the guard position (not good). A pass first point guard who can defend will be a must if we land Jackson. Still a great problem to have as these are both elite talents. Rick said we needed to land a “few” studs. Imagine Wright and Jackson !

I think Jackson is more than he showed as a distributor, but no argument from me about needing a real floor general to join.

I’ve read the last few pages and I’m a little confused

1) who is “Wright”
2) I get we might get Ian Jackson, but why all the talk about Ayo? What does he have to do with it

Buddy of mine that is pretty dialed in says the number is closer to 1.5

Some staff think Ian can play a little point guard. It may be part of the “sell” to him. If true, I hope it is little as in “very little”.

Yeah hoping staff telling Ian he can play point is Rick speak lol he can play it for 2 minutes while Lee or Wright is on the bench!

And after sim is in foul trouble

Pitino knew all along Jackson was most likely coming out. That’s why he passed on Demary. Yea I think that’s why Demary isn’t here. Because Pitino saw this coming.

Not sure about that, but did hear Rick was not confident Demary could play point well enough here. Guess his 10 TOs v us last yr left an impression.

Sanon/Hop/Jackson would be just a ridiculous start to the portal.

 

[SJUhoopNUT]

Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t Ian play mostly point at Hayes? Not saying he’s a true PG but he’s been handling the ball most of his basketball life.

 

[dk423]

Also perhaps why Rick explicitly told RJ that he should enter the portal to give him options since his spot will be taken up.


What a time to be alive

 

[RedStormNC]

Is Jackson bypassing NBA draft potential & exclusively back to college or both still on table?

So 5 minutes into the game?

He also had 8 against Marquette the day before us.

Our most eventful National Championship Monday since 2019 when Mullin decided to resign an hour before the game tipped

Well UConn is pinning their national championship hopes on Silas at PG. We shall see.

He's also an inconsistent shooter who's capable of shooting 20 % in a game.

 

[espken]

70/30, 70/30, do I hear a 80/20?

Ian Jackson better than Demary. Zero confusion about this. Trick is we still need a bonafide Pg and I also want Sellers and a nasty athletic forward. Getting greedy here.
