He’s more of a combo and don’t see a scenario where him, Sanon, Jackson and Sellers would work. There’s only one ball.

Staff was seen eating at PJ Clarkes tonight. Safe to assume PJ was on their mind

Plus hearing he will get around 4 mil a year. If we are hopefully getting Ian and still need 4 or 5 more players to fill out the roster, not sure those financials work never mind the court fit since he is really not a PG. Big time player though.

10. Ian Jackson, 6-4, SG, Fr., North Carolina

One of the more electric players in college basketball, Jackson is an incredibly explosive scorer. The former five-star recruit averaged 11.9 points as a freshman with 20 or more in eight games, including against Alabama, UCLA and Louisville. He averaged 15.3 points in 12 starts.

PJ is ranked 2nd, and Ian is ranked 10th by ESPN transfer ranking.
If Rick Patino had to choose between the two, which one would he choose better?

This is why I wanted someone to post Rick’s email, so we can make sure he knows about these guys in the portal.
 
Think the healthy way to look at all of this is that RJ, Sim, etc. are all part of trade-offs the staff are making for “players to be named later.” Emphasis on later.

Let’s see what happens, but the roster is far from complete.
