His stepdad was who took him on his IU visit. His mom and dad are Karla and Ray Jackson, and apparently Mr. Jackson has been an engaged parent to the level where Trayce hyphenated his last name to reflect that. In fact, I'm gonna assume that Mr. Jackson is Chief Jackson of the Center Grove Police Department - impressive gentleman if it is so: CHIEF RAY JACKSON Police Experience Chief Jackson graduated at the top of his class from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Academy (class 329) in 2002.

8bucks Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Oh that changes things My comment here was a bit snarky. AK made this comment "Sounds like Sunday's visit was huge for TJD. He basically went down to Btown as a personal visit to hang with friends, but ended up calling the staff". My response was that since his Dad was with him on the visit then it was probably a little more planned ahead of time. Then you responded that it was not his Dad but his Stepdad which elicited my "oh that changes things" snarky comment. I could be wrong, and it is not that big a deal, but if his Stepdad was with him on the unofficial visit then I doubt he and his Stepdad were just hanging out with his friends and decided to stop by the bball offices.

He went down on his own according to the article which was a big deal because he usually wants his stepdad to go to do the talking. He spoke with all the coaches for 30 minutes. And after coach Ostrom called his stepdad and said maybe I'm stretching it but trayce is coming out of his shell and he seems to trust us.

goonaha Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Are the other two pictures of him at the game too? Guy on the left is his stepdad. The third picture in the post is him and what looks like high school friends. No IU representatives so not really worth posting. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 I have heard Schilling isn't spending much time that doesn't involve Romeo Langford. Not that he is constantly calling and calling but that he is definitely the main recruiter. Plus he is obviously involved heavily with Keion Brooks right now. I have no complaints. Whatever coach hits it off the best send them full force. Only send more than them for games and visits. hoosierfandad66, ALASKA HOOSIER, Iugradman and 1 other 4 Quote
Popular Post Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted September 4, 2017 Popular Post Posted September 4, 2017 I believe this kid will be a Hoosier and maybe even soon. He has had the IU offer pinned on his twitter for awhile. I tweeted that there is a reason it's pinned lol and he retweeted that with the googly eyes and we all know(not really) what that means nowadays. The multiple visits. He has been here for his last 3 visits I believe. Will be at HH I have heard and just gave a shout out on twitter to a teammate for being the biggest IU fan he knows. That isn't including his step dad's comments either. I want this kid more than anyone in the '19 class besides Wiseman(long shot) and have him right up there with Keion Brooks. Give me those 2 and a big and I absolutely love this class. Stromboli, MIUGA, MoyeNeeded and 5 others 8 Quote

Uspshoosier Posted September 4, 2017 Author Posted September 4, 2017 “They’d like to see him take his game more out to the perimeter, which he’s working on. They don’t see him as just a back to the basket guy. They see him picking and popping, having the ball in his hands, defensively playing the four position but at times going to the three.A quote from an article with his stepdad.
