Skobalj announces he’s coming back. That’s a good keep.

Looks like we got a commitment from Javon Jackson - guard from Utah State. 4.5ppg & 14mpg. Second transfer from a winning program - albeit lower usage.

Went to SNU, D2 school, before Utah State. At SNU averaged 15 points and 2 assists. He looks like a good shooter. He shot 39% from 3 at SNU, and in Utah State 58% of his shots were from 3, shooting 37% from 3. We need shooters if we play with Sasa. One of our assistant head coaches, Johnny Hill was last at Utah State so Jackson is following him here.

Love it. We can use some big wings Saw Fens at Uic alumni softball game today. Be awesome if he stayed but I think he committed.

Pickett needs to get in the gym and shoot with Skobalj. If he can add a more consistent jumper to his game, he could be a pretty solid contributor.

100%. He doesn't have to become a shooter. That's not his game. He has to knock down the wide-open ones. He has to knock down the kick out pass to the corner 3.

Saw on Twitter that Mobi Ikegwuruka, an Irish juco guy, is set to visit UIC. Seems like an athletic wing based off highlight reel. Maybe our Jordan Blount affiliation will help us land him.

Love the intense, physical play. Looks fun to watch. Would take him all day.
I’m dying for some recruiting news. All MVC teams seem to be signing away, and it’s all quiet on the UIC front. We still need a handful of players, don’t we? I’m really worried, without a couple more impact recruits, we’re going to be #12 in the Valley. I can’t take that in year 1 of a new regime. Before transfer portal, maybe…but now? When every Valley team basically rebuilds from scratch every year, we need to be better than #12.

As long as he doesn’t bring Besanty Saragba back with him. Then again, we do lack size…
