Lonnie Jackson has obtained his release, he's transferring. ACC or non-ACC caliber news?

[DavidGordonsFoot]

Think JC helped him pack?

I'll be interested to see where he lands. Could see him latching onto the end of the bench at a bottom tier Pac-12 school.

I won't hide my excitement though, I wanted no part of him playing major minutes next year.

He can shoot, sometimes. A good addition to any teams horse, 21 or knockout team.

I'd be interested to hear Atl's perspective on this. Clearly the staff didn't love him enough to convince him to stick around. Glad to see the staff is putting emphasis on being able to dribble with your head up.

For next year, I'd really like to BC land a 5th year at SG. Playing Milon 30-35 minutes a game won't be a recipe for success.

Working off of this year's 8-man rotation, we have:
Hanlan, Brown, Heckmann, Batten, Clifford playing the bulk of the minutes, with Odio, Magarity and Owens off the bench.

Losing Brown (SG/SF), Heckmann (F), Batten (G), and Odio (F), and replacing them with Diallo, Turner (SG/SF), Millon and Robinson (both guards).

5th year would definitely be nice just for the sake of depth. I'd like them to keep next year's freshman class at 4.

You're entitled to your opinion, but that article is ridiculous.

Hicks will hopefully be playing next year too. I think they either add one more 2015 freshman and a 5th year, or 2 fifth years. Hopefully someone who can dribble and someone who can rebound.

By reading said post, I can pretty much confirm that is to what he is referring. If that's what the staff thought, they are morons.

[commavegarage]

theres no way the staff thought that.

theres also no way syracuse was the most winnable game left on the schedule

i think atl has done a little too much ib'ing this year

[ATLeagle]

The staff did like him and spoke highly of him prior to the season. They also threw Don's staff under the bus because Lonnie still looked like he was in high school and never been in a college weight training program.

Things soured a bit as he's been hurt. I don't think either side is shedding tears.

There is no way the staff thought he could be a leader during the transition? Or that he was too skinny?

[Corporal Funishment]

Lonnie Jackson was on pace to be a 1000 point scorer here. It's complete revisionist history to pretend he wasn't a useful player... he's not Dragicevic

That he was good at basketball...

He was fine against the level of competition he should have been playing at in the first place (see America East and whatever conference Bryant plays in)

[claver2010]

Viewed Jackson in the same ilk of Clifford. At times valuable but on the whole overmatched in the ACC

Drago the practice hero was on pace to be a 1000 point scorer at ND after his freshman year.

He can shoot, sometimes. A good addition to any teams horse, 21 or knockout team.

I think he's going to pull a Rahon and go to a WCC school that's not BYU or Gonzaga. Maybe Saint Mary's or USF. He'd get minutes at least that way.

Put me in the "there's no way the staff thought that" camp.

I'm putting the final flag of victory up if this happens

It's funny that you believe everyone else on this board thinks he is like a 1st Team All-ACC player. Most people just choose not to bash him every day.

Plenry of people thought he was good at basketball. He is not. Also see Dragevich, Alex, who I told you was awful from Day 1.

The latter half of this is definitely true.
