cthomas Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 I don't know much about this kid other than what I read on here, but a recurring theme with all of the recent recruiting targets is that they are excellent defenders. CMW is putting his stamp on IU basketball very quickly. We could very soon have a team that is extremely difficult to play against. A stifling defense and a 'good enough' offense is a recipe for winning basketball. ALASKA HOOSIER, thebigweave and HoosierHoops1 3 Quote

WayneFleekHoosier Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 Well done. Sounds like a great addition with a big upside. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mamasa and mookied39 2 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 My early takeaway from highlight videosSHIFTY, ATHLETIC, EXPLOSIVE. I don’t know his shooting percentages but he has his own unique shooting form. I don’t predict him to be a 3 point specialist. He likes to do a borderline Carry/Gather on his dribble that he isn’t being called for yet. Sounds like a great kid that loves Indiana. Body of a B1G player already. Let’s Go!

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted October 22, 2021 Author Posted October 22, 2021 Links to a bunch of post-commitment stories. The first one from ITH has some great stories on Jakai as a very young boy. He's a remarkable young man. https://www.insidethehall.com/2021/10/22/the-extraordinary-beginnings-of-jakai-newton/ https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/committed-class-of-2023-guard-jakai-newton-knew-iu-basketball-was-home-before-he-left-bloomington/ https://indianahq.com/class-of-2023-4-star-cg-jakai-newton-commits-to-indiana/ https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2021/10/22/indiana-basketball-recruiting-jakai-newton-commits-iu-hoosiers-mike-woodson-georgia-2023-class/6108526001/ https://247sports.com/college/basketball/recruiting/Article/Jakai-Newton-commits-to-Indiana-basketball-recruiting-2023-173605738/ MemphisHoosier, hoosierfan6157, HoosierHoops1 and 3 others 6 Quote
