The CA has two more good Tiger articles today.

The one on Joe talks about how he can shape his legacy by finishing strong this year. It also details how he did not even take any other recruiting visits including the one offered by Cal and KY. "I didn't think it was right because he left Memphis".

One very long article on how CJP's passion for basketball and his relentless desire to learn the game have led him to where he is now. Lots of good stuff about his teenage years with his Dad in AAU ball in Texas.

One of many reasons why he's my favorite Tiger...

Quote:John Calipari called from Kentucky. He wanted Jackson to get on a plane. Jackson knew Calipari better than any college coach in the country. Calipari had been recruiting him to Memphis for years.

Now Calipari was offering Jackson a chance to visit him at his new place in Lexington. Jackson politely declined.

“I didn’t think it was right,” he said. “Because he left Memphis.”

Subscribed and looked the article about Jackson. Not sure there was a ton of substance in the Pastner article, quite frankly.

The CA? That 's the rag I USED to run over in my driveway every morning when it was delivered on time. Screw the CA.

I now live several hundred miles away.
Having access to the CA and Rock103 online allows me the illusion that I am in some smaller Memphis suburb.

The Jackson article made me like him even more. I had no idea he never used his recruiting trips.
