NevadaAllStar Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Now that Jalen is leaving any thoughts from our Aztec brethren on how it affects Jaden’s decision? I wonder how much of a draw playing with his brother was keeping SDSU in the hunt and if they lose a little momentum, or if he was high on SDSU on their own merits.

I think the prevailing argument is if anything, his departure makes landing Jaden (marginally) more likely. I think PT would and will be a huge factor in his decision. That being said, I'm not confident we land him - the allure of using a blue blood program as a springboard to 1-and-done may be too great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washington is the overwhelming favorite now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't been following his recruitment that closely for the simple reason we were always a dark horse at best. I am curious tho - do you pee your pants laughing whenever you hear a knock-knock joke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he a legit one and done? To be honest I haven't seen him play. It would have been really special for you guys to land/keep both of the brothers. I know they were saying that about Brown but he never really got a chance to prove it under Muss... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk how strong next year's draft is projected to be, but the fact ESPN has him as the 6th-ranked recruit in the nation (and 1st-ranked PF) says something about his potential. His 8'11 standing reach would have placed him above the 70th percentile in this year's draft combine, and according to Kentucky Sports Radio, Corey Evans (of Rivals) compared him to a "more polished version of... lottery pick Jonathan Isaac."
