Bro, jarron played on one of the most loaded aau teams in Ohio history and was best player on team. If UC really had real strength and conditioning coach, I believe he was 1st rd pick

I literally said jarron turned out to be really good. I love jarron, relax.

I just remember watching his high school tape and thinking, this guy shoots weird and looks kinda slow. The point was, the highlight videos can be hard to judge a player by. And we all get it wrong sometimes, except you I guess.

Highlights are made either make you look excellent or expose you. I didn’t need highlights to know jarron was real deal. Kennard was lottery pick and jarron was better player on aau team by far

I know how highlight tapes work but I don’t go to aau events like most of us, so it’s the only way most of us can see these players.

Also, Just because you are better in high school doesn’t mean you will be better forever. There are a million players that peak in elementary and high school.

So you’re saying Jarron was better than Kennard and we made him worse? What?!

Development. Kennard went and work in nba environment during college. Jarron came here with no other nba players in sight besides Evans. If Cumberland went to duke I believe he would’ve went nba early

I love how you don't even name the guy who actually still PLAYS in the NBA. Gary Clark.

Your posts literally get dumber every week.

When jarron was Sr high school or FR in college, Gary Clark wasn’t on nba radar. Learn comprehension before you go calling someone dumb. Even if Clark was on nba radar, that was your comeback? One player that went in 2nd to team that had 10 nba or McDonald’s all American

Jarron wasn't an NBA talent when he got here and I for one never thought he had a shot at the NBA. So what's your point about him going to Duke? He was never going to Duke and even if he did it wouldn't have made him magically more athletic to be able to make the league.

Jarron was a great scorer but he never had the athleticism for the NBA. And like SK he only knew how to be the primary guy. That doesn’t transition well into the NBA.
