This is shaping up as a bit of a breather class between the THT/Griffin class and all of the big fish out there for 2020. I think KyKy is less than a 50/50 but not because of this commit. I’ve got a weird feeling that we might be getting an MJ surprise down the line.
Tre Jackson commits
- Thread starter CloneGuy8
- Start date
Steve's track record with point guards:
Isaiah Canaan - pro
Cameron Payne - pro
Monte morris - pro
Liddell wigginton - future pro
Haiburton - TBD
Ill give Prohm a benefit of the doubt for now on Tre.

Tre Jackson has yet to be rated by 247 or ESPN really..they will redo rankings including his..so keep that in mind.
If there is a coach that knows guards it is S Prohm...the guy has a knack for finding and developing stud guards. Tre Jackson went up against some the better AAU programs in country this summer and more than held his own. I won’t question Prohm getting any guard until proven otherwise..
From the few videos I found of him he looks like a damn good pick up. First thing that pops out is he is a very very good 3 Point shooter, has good ball control, and has good passing ability and puts some stank on his passes. He also looks to be a very good defender with the potential to be a lock down type defender at the College Level, and is a very tough Bully Guard type player. Pretty much everything I love to see in a PG. Although not as an explosive of a jumper as Tandy I like Jackson's Upside just as much.
Love the pick-up.
Just playing devil's advocate though, Prohm recruited only two of those 4 pros, and of those two, only Payne would have been considered a "diamond in the rough."
The number of high school recruits ranked above 200 that make an impact in the big 12 is very low. You can respect the job Prohm has done in the past and be skeptical at the same time.
Could also be a Fran McCaffrey class. We just don’t know.
Feel bad for the kid. Just made one of the biggest decisions of his life and if he comes and reads this, fans are already making negative comments before he even steps on the court. Way to go guys! Best fans in the country!
iirc Prohm was the lead recruiter on Canaan as well, fwiw
This is a forum, we can have discussion on recruiting. It’s part of the reason this is here. Prohm has an eye for talent no doubt. Jackson was not his first choice for the position. We are all rooting for him to be great, some of us are just more skeptical while others have blind faith.
Tre's twitter announcement has him wearing Cyclone #3. How does this factor into the debate of Melvin Ejim's jersey someday hanging?
He’s probably been disrespected his whole playing career. He doesn’t even even have a 247 profile. Maybe he is used to playing the underdog role and will use the disrespect to fuel him.
