I thought that was a miss too. Pull him after a minute if you have to but get him announced for Senior night. Didn't matter in the end, but it's how I would have done it if I was coaching. Not that big of a deal but you also have to let Sha do his own thing.

I sort of feel that would be more insulting to Jackson than not starting him.
I know that would be the norm but not in his situation.

Forgot all about the Senior Night angle., I would like to see him start and be out there with Samuel to see if that changes the dynamic.

Jackson is decent enough where he can start for the first 5 mins and not hurt you

With transfers, the COVID year now P4P, players not sure if they’ll come back for an extra year, etc, it’s really lost its luster in general. Much of the historical emotion has been sucked out of this event.

It will gain importance again after all the COVID year super seniors are gone, prob even more so bc less players will be siting out with no sit transfers so seniors should actually be academic seniors.

Disappointed in how sha used Jackson this year (yes, I understand the roster constraints) - especially last night.

No reason we couldn’t “go big” last night against nova to match their length and give some different looks

Samuel, Jackson, Ndefo, Femi, Dawes

Jackson played hard yesterday. His defense has really stepped up but circumstances have him playing out of position. Jerry Carino in his write up of the game mentioned he is a possibility (albeit a small possibility) to return next season.

You mean like that possession towards the end of the game where he gave 0 effort and just hugged Dixon. That defense? It’s hard to find a worse defensive player in our history.

Oh I think Anthony Nelson would give him a pretty good run for his money.
