In response to nychoops
Had a chance to see the Blair game. Started off with an ejection for a kid spitting on another and after falling behind Blair scored what seemed like 1000 points in second half. Blair has a pg Jaylen Blakes who was sensational. Good student, kid im sure Penn will reach out to but he will get a lot of interest.
They also have jabir Abdur Rahim(Sharif's son) who I will be shocked if he doesnt end up top 10 in his class. As for Jordan his game is maturing nicely. He is really filling out and displayed great intensity, leadership and athletic ability. His shot is improving and he has the ability to be an elite defender. As I told him the tools right now are slightly ahead of the package but hes a young kid with a great work ethic, I suspect should his desire continue he will be a great one at Penn. He also happens to be a great young man that will both make his family and community proud
Always love to have your insight on the board and great to hear about Jordan. Looks like the kind of kid who has the potential to be All Ivy if he keeps putting in the work and honestly with Woods graduating I could see him getting solid minutes next year if he can defend with that strength.
Just curious - did you catch much of Jonah Charles this year? It looks like he stepped up his senior season (certainly hit a lot of 3s), but wondering what else you might think.
