Very excited about getting a PG in the fold. Don't see him being all that effective his Freshman year, but I like his long term prospects.
2 things I want to call out:
1.) I think some here are overselling his abilities and comparing him to Scoochie. Depending on which source you look at - Scoochie was a borderline top 100 player. Jalen is outside the top 300. Jalens best offer other than UD is either
UMass or DePaul.
2.) There are a lot of people on these boards who said some very negative things about McKinley Wright because he decommited. If you look up "PG who outplayed his commitment during his senior season and then used a coaching change to move to a bigger school" you will see pictures of MW and Jalen. I know we love our own, but I see some hypocrites in here who questioned MW's character for doing exactly what Jalen did. Those same people don't seem to questions Jalen's character at all.
Either way - I am happy to have Jalen aboard.
