SJU Portal Targets

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
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)

Nice to see players leaving UNC because they know Hubert wont develop them. Hopefully more players can look past the name brands moving forward.
 
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.
I’ll take your word for it from our side wanting both but would have my doubts Sellers would want to come because with Sanon Wilcher Jackson and others it would be awfully crowded at that or those positions. Of course timing factors in if Sellers commits this weekend before Jackson. Then of course you could have a Slawinski situation. JMHO
 
FWIW from some Florida fan on the discord

Apparently, idk if you can confirm, Todd called players like Xavien Lee during river walk last night and FaceTimed them!
 
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.

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.

I 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.🙏

no i agree. Jackson is a game changer with respect to recruiting the city for the future. that said we DO need a PG
