Jalen Cook rating

This may be a dumb question but why is Cook rated so low nationally? Is he super underrated? Size? Everything I’ve heard about this guy is that he’s a stud instant impact player.

Go see him tonight in person and make your own judgement. He is a true PG that can take over when needed.

Hung 50 on catholic. Can score at will.

Kid is a stud and will be a good one at LSU.
I will be there tonight watching him go up against Scotlandville and Beakman.

The knock is size but I dont get it either. He is actually built pretty well for a 6 footer and is having a GIGANTIC season. Was player of the year in LA last year over Beekman too. Owned Beekman heads up in their game last season, play tonight against one another again.

What are his shooting %’s

Can only be size. And what did he do in AAU this summer.
There are dozens and dozens of very talented PG and Shooting guards.
So I do not know if the ranking matters. Probably little respect nationally for Louisiana Basketball also.
What can he do for LSU?
I expect he will do very well as a PG.

I have been around Jalen since he was seven years old. You will not find a harder worker to perfect his craft. Sweet and humble young man who wants to win. I think his rating is because of height. This kid is an athlete and will excel at LSU

I have seen him play in person three times over the last two years. I think he is rated right where he should be. That's not a knock on him at all. I have seen him dominate a game while scoring 30 plus and I have seen him look average while "only" scoring 16 points.
No doubt by the time he leaves, he is going to be a great player at LSU. But the fact of the matter is, he is going to be a four year player at LSU. Its going to take him a couple of years to develop, but by the times he leaves I think he will be a solid starter at LSU. I just don't ever see him being an all-conference type of player.

I went saw him against Catholic and he is phenomenal. Listed at 6ft but probably 5’10. Will tear it up at the next level.

He fits today’s game well. Strong on the drive, quick first step. Not a lights out shooter, but very capable of driving strong to the rim and finishing while drawing a foul.

It seems like they don't update the basketball rankings nearly as much as the football rankings.

Watched him against Scotlandville tonight...did not play well at all. He’s built really well, but plays below the rim.
Maybe he just had an off night or something. Reece Beeckman is the real deal. Shame we lost him.

Chris Jackson was 5'4"
Let that sink in.
