Early season update on 3 recent LA high school BB players Jones did not get.

Jacob Evans: soph: Cincinnati: guard: 17.8 ppg: 4.1 rpg: 2.2 apg

Dejon Jarreau: fresh: Umass: guard: 12 ppg: 4.3 rpg: 6 apg

Robert Williams: fresh: tx a&m: fwd: 10.5 ppg: 5.8 rpg: 1.3 apg

It seems like the LSU Tigers could use some of this early production and potential.

He has to send them off to get coached properly. Then they can transfer back in.

Dejon Jarreau


We've been over this. He wanted his boy to get a scholly, too. The guy isn't Kobe. Is he a good player? Sure. He's not better than AB or Sampson or Mays...probably not even J Patt if we're being realistic. He's shooting 39%, very good assist numbers, also high TO. He's a volume shooter

The year Evans elected to sign with Cincinnati they signed Ben Simmons, Antonio Blakeney, Brandon Sampson, and Craig Victor transferred. Maybe Evans did not want to compete for playing time early, who knows. Youcan only sign so many players, sometimes a player blossoms more than anticipated.

If you want to criticize him for losing in state players then you need to praise him for Jordan Mickey, Blakeny, Simmons, Jalyn Patterson, Reath, Hornsby, and Tim Quarterman. Nice to cherry pick but it swings both ways.
