Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 4415414, member: 10"] Only Husky is Sanogo at #15. [HEADING=1][I]15.

The junior big man enters his third season with the Huskies and returns as the second-leading returning scorer and leading returning rebounder in the league after averaging 14.8 points and 8.8 rebounds per game a season ago. -- KB[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/ranking-the-top-100-and-1-best-college-basketball-players-entering-the-2022-23-season/[/URL] Jackson named as one of the biggest snubs. Who is the poster who said the other day that Norlander hates UConn? That couldn't be further from the truth. Was born and raised in CT and I think he still lives in CT. He is the CBS analyst who plugs UConn the most. [HEADING=1][I]Andre Jackson, G, [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/teams/UCONN/connecticut-huskies/']UConn[/URL][/I][/HEADING] [I]I have three candidates here. Before I get to why Jackson is my biggest snub, I'll note that [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/teams/GONZAG/gonzaga-bulldogs/']Gonzaga[/URL] point guard [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/players/26777237/nolan-hickman/']Nolan Hickman[/URL] was my highest-ranked player (62nd) to not crack our 100 And 1. At [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/teams/UK/kentucky-wildcats/']Kentucky[/URL], [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/players/3142425/jacob-toppin/']Jacob Toppin[/URL] is due for a breakout season; I think we'll wind up whiffing on his exclusion. But Jackson, who will miss the first two weeks of the season with a pinky issue, is the most likely of three who could make us look silly. He'll be asked to have the ball in his hands, and potentially take a starring role for a UConn team that figures to be ranked with some regularity this season. He's 6-foot-6 and will have the offense play more through him than anyone else, including Big East Preseason Player of the Year [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/players/3178164/adama-sanogo/']Adama Sanogo[/URL]. Jackson is also an [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/nba/']NBA[/URL] prospect, and if he does what Dan Hurley hopes he's capable of over the next five months, he'll be drafted next June.
