Big Tom and Big Chuck are two great bigs we have on our roster. This also means Tom is very adamant on staying two years

I'm just gonna put this here for now.  '17 PF Ra Kpedi from LN is another player in this loaded class..

 

http://indy.st/1DpmHxo

 

Kpedi plays with the Indiana Elite G3 Rising Stars, along with Lawrence North teammates Kevin Easley and Antwaan Cushingberry, two rising sophomores who played key roles this season for the Wildcats. Lawrence North won its first sectional in six years and will have a solid core returning.

 

Kpedi, who picked up his first offer from IUPUI in February, is early in the recruiting process and hasn't taken any college visits. Other programs showing interest are Butler, Bradley, Indiana, Purdue, Saint Louis and Western Illinois.

Frank Jackson is REALLY good!! He was a BYU commit but started to bet more attention from other schools, so he open his commitment back up.

[sddowning 146]

I've seen Frank Jackson in person many times. Trust me when I tell he can ball.

I wouldn't mind IU getting some sort of connection with Lone Peak High School


Also, how would CTC and the staff respond to Jackson's desire to serve a 2 year mission before coming to IU if he decided to go here? Would be interesting

It would be interesting. I'm curious to see how the school he chooses handles that. Excluding BYU and Utah I'm not sure what other schools have experienced that. Has there ever been a players as good as him serve a mission. Jabari chose not to go and I can't think of another lds player as good as them who chose to go.

Any idea how that works #'s wise? Does he count against our limit while on the mission or is it just like a HS commit delayed by 2 years?

Just like a HS commit delayed by 2 years. He doesn't use a scholarship till he is actually at school

Not as high up as Jabari or Frank Jackson but Payton Dastrup from 2014 class was an OSU commit before ultimately signing with BYU. He was in ESPN top 100 and had offers from Kansas, UCLA, OSU, Arizona, amongst others. 

Eric Mika was also ranked higher coming out of high school than Frank Jackson.
