Kadeem Jack - PF - South Kent - Cambria Heights, NY - RUTGERS

Kadeem Jack ’11 – South Kent (CT) – The defensive minded big man was named MVP of the Hoop Group All-Star Game and has improved his game on all levels over the past few months. His recruiting has picked up from that. “St. John’s, Rutgers, Memphis, Xavier, Miami, UConn, West Virginia, Arkansas and Arizona” have all offered Kadeem. He is also receiving major interest from “Texas, Kansas and Kansas State,” although they have not offered yet. The South Kent bound post-grad is excited to go to the Connecticut school in September. That is also the same month he plans to make his decision on a school. “I hope to commit after the summer,” said Jack. “I want to commit in September and probably will.” Jack played well this week despite his team losing to his future teammates at South Kent, Harkless and Derrick Randall, in an early round game.

“Every game is going to be exciting,” said Jack, who is being courted by Kansas State, North Carolina, Kentucky, Texas and St. John's, among others. “One game he’ll do something, next game I will.”

I can see why new schools keep on popping up on Kadeem Jack’s list. He has added muscle to his 6-foot-9 frame, you can see the maturating in his offensive game – particularly his jump shot – and his mobility is better than it was during the high-school season. That being said, he still lacks much of a back-to-the-basket game. By this time next year, after a season at South Kent (Conn.), the former Rice standout will be flat-out scary.

If he really does cut his list tomorrow and commit soon then doesn't that put us out of contention because I would have a tough time believing he would commit to a school that he's not sure he can play at.

So what's the word with Kadeem? Is he allowed to play here?

No one's challenged the rule to find out what loopholes there are.  But probably not - Hicks was his high school and AAU coach.

Not really a surprise since Hicks is aboard.

Some rumblings last night were he might try to play immediately at RU

They are more than one good player away from the CBI. He should stay where he is.

agree why waste a year..he would have gotten plenty of good competetion at southkent

South Kent is going to be better than Rutgers.
