2022 Recruiting: Andre Jackson

His handle is impressive to go with his athleticism. If his three point shot continues to improve (and it is miles better than last summer already) he and Bouknight on the wings could be deadly.

 

[Spaceman213J]

Nice looking follow through. Even if he just is/becomes consistently average to slightly above average from deep, with his natural ability to do other things, he'll be very strong overall.

 

[ToolzieFan]

I don’t about his shot, but his handle looks nice. That’s part of the reason I have more faith in him than other players known for primarily for their athleticism. In other words, he might be more Daniel Hamilton than Sid Wilson (who I still have faith in).

 

[BNich]

Don't give him a lane unless you want get posterized. Dude looks legit and continues to improve.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Nice handles and a very nice looking **jump!**shot

 

[polycom]

That slow crossover isn’t working in high major D1 basketball. But I like that he finishes everything with a dunk. We’ll see if he’s afraid of contact at the next level

 

[4TheCycle]

He’s in the gym working on his shot most days. He makes 2-3 a game now, last year he wouldn’t take a 3. So he’s building up his confidence.

Big shoutout to Jeremy Lamb around the midway point of the video.

Andre's center Riley Mulvey is one to keep an eye on.

Andre was injured in this game, I believe. Probably just used to break pressure and run the offense. From what I saw he hit two 3s and had 5+ assists. He was in better form the game I linked below. Kinda lazy on D, but that's common for talented HS players

Monstrous dunk at around 1:32.
Competition doesn't look nearly as bad as I'd have thought. At least a few solid athletes on that other team. Gets T'd up at 5:00 for talking ish after he posts some guy up.
Big block at 6:18
Really nice assist to his brother at 8:52

I count 17pts 5 assists

Big shoutout to Jeremy Lamb around the midway point of the video.

His face lights up when they ask him about his brother winning MVP. Hard not to root for a player that wants to see others succeed. I see why Hurley was all over him last spring/summer--he's a winner.

Man it's gonna suck to be other teams with this kid and Bouk running at you together in transition.

 

[JimHurley]

Once again, anybody who says we need more for next season are badly mistaken. This team will be loaded even if we don’t add anyone else. RJ Cole at PG with Bouk and Andre on the wing

 

[Husk04ies]

I like his personality...you can tell hes going to have that swagger....cant wait.

Highlight reel. Happy days are here again.

 

[CL82]

Couldn't really see it in this video, but I love that he's a slasher who can finish at the rim. He's just what the doctor ordered.

 

[Slappy]

Cool free throw video?

I see what you did there.

Don’t want to hijack this thread but curious if you’ve heard how Springs looks in practice?

 

[QDOG5]

The center looked good. I believe Andre said he was a sophomore. Have Mulvey and Clingan ever played with/against each other? Also, how good is Andre's brother? Is there a chance we get a two-fer?

 

[August_West]

I love the thought of Jackson cant wait for him to get here, but jesus watching HS clips in this thread is no different then watching Ajok abuse a chair. Especially the "He used to be a point guard pass"

 

[JimHurley]

Don’t want to hijack this thread but curious if you’ve heard how Springs looks in practice?

I haven't but I will ask. I have someone who is at practice most days. He speaks very highly of Cole, though.
