Former 5* Dwayne Morgan Transfers from UNLV

[CallMeBruce]

For the same reason people are now excited about a wee junior college transfer who essentially had no offers out of high school but put up huge numbers at Podunk CC - sheer, blind hope.

So, just to be clear, people interested in Morgan are stupid for caring about his recruiting rankings because he's been mediocre in college, but people who care about Jackson's performance are stupid because of his lousy recruiting ranking. Do I have it?

Morgan and GO (I'm not gonna try and spell his name) could be the results of terrible coaching. I'd rather take a chance on guys like them than the next cassell.

A kid like Cassell who was offered by Maryland and other majors? Or you just mean that in hindsight you'd rather take a kid who hasn't yet failed to impress at UConn than one who has?

The kid is playing in an intramural league relative to Connectictut - his stats are gaudy and meaningless whereas Morgan has failed to produce at this level.

It's not hard to understand, is it? You can compare Cassell's junior college stats against his UConn production if you're still struggling.

And just to be clear, we really don't need you wandering from thread to thread playing the which kinda seems to be your self-chosen role. Again, just to be clear.

They play 0 D in Juco. I see the teams Jackson plays against regularly. There wasn't any buzz on him or I would have made it a priority to see him

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Sam Cassell Jr. being the son of a badarse NBA player had something to do with teams thinking he might be good, the whole apple doesn't fall far from the tree thing.

I'm struggling with how you can think 33% shooting from 3 (what Cassell put up in JuCo) compares to 45% shooting from 3 (what Jackson put up). Whatever your opinion of Jackson's level of competition, it's clear he can shoot. If we're looking for a shooter, he could be an asset.

I'll just let the irony of that last line speak for itself.
