Agreed. And...
Who knew Tiana is our CLOSER?
She's not even playing at the moment, and still might have the biggest assist of her career on this one!

I cannot wait until she plays again. They need to pack the dome and have a pink out with no exceptions.Agreed. And...

Also... Verbal Commits does NOT list UK as having offered Isaiah??
They already have Lance Ware verbal, and offers listed to 3 other PF's, none of whom is Jackson.
AND - Bama already has a crapton of PF's on their roster.
Now - he may actually be a 5 for us (and others?), but still -
Bama has a LOT of LARGE dudes already on campus.
(and not just on the football team)

I haven't heard this story. Can you share DC's line on a message board?

After reading his fathers quotes it's hard to not get excited. I think this comes down to us and bama. I would never count kentucky out just because of who they are as a program and their coach but they definitely have a pecking order and I think the jackson family knows that. They really want Todd and or Brown and already have Ware so I'm not sure how much of a priority Isaiah is to them. I'm not saying they arent putting effort into his recruitment but I'm thinking bama and cuse are probably throwing everything they can at him while kentucky might not be showing quite as much love and keeping him on the back burner. I bet him and his family left cuse knowing how important he would be to our program and what he could accomplish with us. Kid would be the star attraction here and not just another stud at kentucky. This would be huge for us and would totally and completely erase the thought of the other Jackson. I'm pretty sure if you were to poll everyone on here who they would choose if it came down to one or the other that Isaiah would win out no contest and that's not taking anything away from how good I think Andre is.

Wait I thought according to this guy we were the dark horse haha what a tool.
awesome quotes and sounds like a really impressive recruiting trip. Cant do much more than to show a recruit and his family that he is the top priority, will be surrounded by warm and supportive environment. This kid would be absolutely huge for the program. Would not worry for a second about missing out on anyone else if IJ becomes Orange!
Cuse!
100% agreed. The kid and family know they are priority number one here. Can build a team around IJ and just what a bunch of shooters need to be even more dangerous. Andre is good and would have been happy to have him but this kid could be great and fits the need completely!
Cuse!

Yea they dont think very highly of us...expected though coming from them. I really liked this part because it's the farthest from the truth.
"We will see how things go, but I think he chooses UK. He's a borderline 5-star, top 25 guy. Those guys aren't guaranteed draft picks. He will need to be pushed and work hard to get into the first round and UK is the place for that. Cal has a proven track record in these situations."
Cal has a track record of getting kids who could go straight to the NBA out of highschool drafter in the first round because those kids are already the ish...no development needed.

Love the quotes by Isaiah ’s father.
Anyone hear how Isaiah felt about the visit and the school?

Man that zags article.. powerful stuff. With that said guess who else is reading rhat.. Bama's staff. Oats seems like the type who could fall into the trap of negative recruiting. He certainly had lots to say the first year we beat UB and not good things about SU. Let's hope we can close the deal on this one.

Judging by that article and what Isaiah’s dad had to say, I actually think negative recruiting would backfire on Oats and Bama.
Just a thought here on why Dre flipped from Cuse.
If Dre is a 3 (he’s not a 2 right out of the gate cause of his shooting) and if Eli and Guerrier stay another here, Dre wouldn’t have much playing time.
If we get IJ, here is our roster next year.
Carey / Goodine
Buddy / JG3
Eli / Guerrier
IJ / Doley / Bras / Woody
Sid / Edwards / JBA
Dre would be 2 or player off the bench as a Freshman.

If Quincy is here next season, he’s not coming off the bench.
