Class of 2020 PF Isaiah Jackson (MI/SpireAcademyOH) to Kentucky

[AZOrange]

Behind who, realistically? If he takes Bama to two consecutive tournament appearances, i’d figure it’s him after the obligatory “You up?” Text to Hop.

Hop first. Red is second.

Hop first. Red is second.

I think Red’s due a head coaching gig at a g5 or lower p5, I don’t know if it’s the right call to anoint him HC in wait. Has he received any calls from other schools fishing for a HC? Nate’s already got tournament experience and is beginning to make an impression on the recruiting circuit. I have nothing against Red, I just don’t know if he’s the same obvious pick that Hop was considering Hop was garnering interest from other programs well before he left.

 

[TacoTime75]

Yeah but are we going to get Isaiah Jackson?

So we’re going to make this same mistake twice

Hell yea man, tell everyone.







Full disclosure, I know nothing about most things including this recruitment.

 

[jdubs30]

If Red leaves to take a smaller HC gig I can only imagine what our recruiting will be like

That's amazing -- great to see that our coaches, players, and facilities made such an impression on IJ and his family.

Interesting to note that the sentiment expressed by IJ's dad about the family, closeness, etc. runs counter a bit to what we often hear about JB being aloof and not relating to the team.

Indirectly, it also sounds like this current team [unlike recent years] has some solid chemistry. I'm sure the trip to Italy helped them bond.

That didnt suck

 

[Todoubled23]

He sure seemed like a cerebral kid when he made the comments about our zone D a month or two back. Any shot blocking kid SHOULD be open to anchoring a zone. And yet, Isaiah's comments seem to be the outlier when it comes to big men and how they perceive the zone. Great news though here either way.

I’ve not had the opportunity to watch tape yet, but is he comparable to any pst players? McCullough, Hak, Rak?

 

[jdubs30]

Wow listening to Isaiahs dad it’s hard to imagine that we don’t have a great chance at this thing

Of those three, probably closest to Rak
