Would figure the involvement would be for him to play PG if we miss on Leeregarding the DJ Wagner chatter - his name popped up a few weeks ago behind the scenes about possibly entering. SJU ties with Wilcher and others. Hard to see any involvement there with Sellers and Jackson being main targets
Modest PG time in AAU & at Hayes, but being complete player is indeed the challenge. My sense that has been the essence of staff/player discussion and he’ll be a buyer. Pitino appeal re player development/pro readiness seems logical trump card in landing him. (Quite a contrast to Hubert)Ian has a history of playing PG in high school, AAu etc. Just not at UNC bc of Cadeau. He did nothing at UNC besides score which is concerning but also might be a knock on the staff for not asking him to do more?
That being said, if Jackson does become a Johnnie he will need to be a complete player as he will likely be starting and playing 30+ mins and the whole no defense, no passing , no rebounding thing doesn't fly with Coach P. So I'd safely assume if he's here he's all in on the buy in

Today's LMF helpful hints:
1. If we don't get a guy that we wanted, he doesn't suddenly suck.
2. If you have not actually watched at least a dozen games of a guy, well you're entitled to blather your opinion but self-awareness and some level of trust that people who do this for a living might know what they're doing is a good thing.
3. If you are posting about a player's race religion ethnicity etc don't ask what happened when your post gets deleted and you get points that will eventually restrict your posting privileges.
4. Y'all keep my guy Sim's name out of your mouths unless you have something nice to say. Because he's gonna make you eat your words and I don't wanna hear "oh wow he's great I always loved him" out of you next year.
Regarding not taking Sellers and Jackson.not true
Nice to see players leaving UNC because they know Hubert wont develop them. Hopefully more players can look past the name brands moving forward.
Not sure how any top HS recruit could go there.
Friday. Sellers visiting on 11th to 13th according to X postsAre visits allowed starting Friday or Saturday? Thanks in advance for clarification.
Depends on where his priorities lie. If his ultimate goal is to improve to get drafted then going with Rick would seem like a no-brainer.It's going to be very hard to beat out UF for Lee, better weather, bigger school, bigger conference, defending national champs who just lost their star PG.
seems like a massive uphill battle.
Did he have surgery? Might be why he’s not listed.
I want Jackson so much more than Lee. Others probably will feel differently.It's going to be very hard to beat out UF for Lee, better weather, bigger school, bigger conference, defending national champs who just lost their star PG.

no i agree. Jackson is a game changer with respect to recruiting the city for the future. that said we DO need a PGI want Jackson so much more than Lee. Others probably will feel differently.
Ian Jackson is an elite player that was in bad situation last year, given the head coach and available minutes problem (had to feed Cadeau, Trimble, and Davis too).
Give him regular 30 minutes a game at SJU and you will see an elite player (lottery pick) under CRP
Please get him before the $harks (Arkansas, Kansas, Oregon, Baylor, and Kentucky) emerge.![]()
