It’s one or the other right? They’re like the same player...

They have very different styles but play the same position. With Bouknight in the fold it's hard to imagine we get more than one.

Wait how are their styles that much different? I’ve watched a bunch of tape on both and find them remarkably similar players.
One makes shooty baskets, the other one definitely does not.

Abdur-Rahim is one of the best shooters in the class. Jackson is one of the worst.

You can't be serious. Especially when it comes to shooting. Look at their stats.

UConn's return to the Big East would be a 'game-changer' in recruiting, coaches say | Zagsblog
By ADAM ZAGORIA BLAIRSTOWN, N.J. –– UConn […]

Some very encouraging quotes in there:
“For a top-50 guy like Jabri [Abdur-Rahim], that obviously makes UConn a totally different option,” said Blair Academy coach Joe Mantegna, who hosted the Mid-Atlantic Independent School Shootout that drew Hurley, Syracuse’s Jim Boeheim, Virginia’s Tony Bennett, Pitt’s Jeff Capel and Cal’s Mark Fox, along with a slew of high- and mid-major assistant coaches.
“The Big East has a lot of sway around here and obviously I know that that puts UConn back with the same company that they were always with,” Mantegna said. “And people our age think of UConn as a Big East school, and I think that changes everything for recruiting for Danny.”

This but for 2021. NBA holds end of one-and-done off to 2022, UConn sells many northeast 5*s on welcoming UConn to the new conference and shutting down the one-and-done era. That's a dream

UConn was never worried about Seton Hall when in the AAC for recruiting so yes they should be worried.

We might get both. Very small chance of that happening, but still a chance.

Don't see why Jabari and Jackson cant coexist. But like you said it's unlikely.

Wait Joe Mantegna is a basketball coach now? I could see kids wanting to run thru a brick wall for Fat Tony, so they don't get their legs broken
