So the fact remains. IU offered a schollie to a player they "didn't really want". :rofl: |

called oversigning. IU needs bodies - hence the gazelle hunter on their team - you think IU would normally want that coconut? or the 5 walkons they have. Lewjackoff would be just another body you are completely abused - no different than any other day :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: |

Jackson was offered by IU before they needed bodies. He was offered by Sampson before Sampson offered Holloway. |

“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves." "I’d take him to the ends of the earth — I’d want him playing for me.” - Bo Ryan on Robbie Hummel

if true - makes sense - Sampson disregards academics so LowIQJack was his kind of player. |

Once again, you have proven that you know absolutely nothing about anything and don't let any facts creep into your posts. Show me ANYWHERE credible that says anything about Jackson having a low IQ, or not being smart. |

Sanctions apparently offered schollies to many players he didn't really want. Hummel, Martin, Johnson, Moore and Jackson just to name a few. Always interesting how he always lost "interest" in players, as soon as he realized that player wasn't coming to IU. |

it is a fact that LowIQjack had trouble qualifying - even at a juco like turdue. why do you think there was so much delay and question with him coming to turdue? he's an idiot and so are you |

More speculation and lies. UB is trying frantically to keep pace with Ifriskmen711 in this category. |

There was never a delay or any question from a reliable source. It was more internet, message board rumors started by homers like yourself. He was here all summer, how is that a delay? He didn't miss any practice, any workout, and there was never a worry from anyone at Purdue. |

Evaluation Jackson, though small, has amazing quickness and explosion, which compensates for his lack of height and questionable judgement. He has deft ball-handling skills which he combines with his athleticism to make him a very effective penetrator. He also has adequate passing skills, easily locating open teammates for shots. Jackson needs to excersie more patience on the offensive end, sometimes shooting a litte too much and getting out of control. His shot needs a lot of work. He plays very hard and gives maximum effort when he steps onto the court. Jackson is an outstanding playmaker at the point guard position. He understands his role and knows how to get the ball to his teammates who can make the scoring play. He is "Mr. Assist". Size may be an issue with this kid, at 5'9'', but he puts so much pressure on opponents on both ends of the floor you just know that this kid is destined to play wherever he chooses depending on academic eligibility. Lewis can break down smaller opponents and get into the lane at will. At 5'9'' he has good lift and elevation, and can dunk it when he attacks the rim. Although Jackson can score and shoot the ball that is certainly not his forte. Running a team, being the consummate playmaker is what this kid is all about. Lewis also puts decent pressure on opposing point guards. He knows how to guard and makes life miserable for his opponents, creating turnovers, steals and general havoc with his play. |

Though schoolwork sometimes doesn't get as much attention from Lewis as basketball does, "He has always had pretty good grades," says Hicklin, the school's principal. His mom laments Internet reports that claimed academics would keep her son from playing at Purdue as a freshman. "How can you talk about a child like that when you don't know him?" she says. I'll take the words of a kid's mother over the words of some internet tough guy. |

:rofl: Wow...sorry, Lars, but it looks like dcam topped you for the most severe ownage of UB. Even Ifriskmen711 is ashamed of the Biased_Homer. Expect another falling out between them...just like the one they had in the midst of the Gomers' 3-9 season. |
