Wherever he can get the most shine at. I would think KU. Super talent but a head case IMO.

Lots of playing time on what will be another top 10 KU team next year. Arizona is already overloaded at the wing, so I don't see Jackson declaring for Sweaty.

I actually think Josh ends up at MSU. His girlfriend goes to the University of Michigan and I hear he's good friends with their recruits Miles Bridges and Josh Langford.

I had thought all along it would be MSU.

I actually wouldn't mind him going to KU. Bill Self's track record with 1AD players suggests he wouldn't be much of a contributor next year.

He's so good it won't matter.

But, his choice will be KU. They are going to be very good with him next year. Top 5 team

Wiggins averaged 17 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, was an All-American and the #1 pick in the draft. What more did you expect of him?
But they sure did nothing in the tournament that season.Bill Self doesn't seem to do much with great talent.

I guess to not lose in the second round of the NCAA tournament as a 2-seed to a double-digit seeded opponent.

Wiggins did enough to not lose draft position. But lets not act like he set college basketball on fire. His numbers were fine, but watching him play was very underwhelming.

Kansas. And not because the recruiting gurus say Kansas, but because that's the most logical choice for MR Jackson.

So Josh Jackson's dad's friend just tweeted out a picture congratulating Josh on choosing Michigan State then deleted it right after. Not looking good for Kansas. But then again who knows what that really means.

I saw a couple other people on Twitter say the same thing. So far, though, nobody seems to have captured a screenshot of the Tweet. Do you have it?

Some Oregon player tweeted welcome to Murray, their newest player. Probably means nothing.

My thought too. He may find himself on the bench all year if it tickles Self's fancy.

Bossi just now:

Nothing new to report here. My best guess based on the information is Kansas. Still no exact time for a decision but I'm assuming that it should still happen today and I do know that when it is released it will be released by the twitter account of his summer program 1Nation.


Also I'd agree with you guys about him sitting on the bench if Selden was coming back but he isn't. Jackson wouldn't be the primary ball handler so he'd play. Self has played freshmen 3s a lot.

Honestly I think KU is better with Ferguson than JJ..... A 3pt shooter would spread the floor more...

I did. I watched them not go to another Final Four.

I'm talking about Izzo. And I don't know if that's supposed to be some kind of burn but losing to Villanova is something a lot of good teams did this year. There's no shame in that outcome, wish I could say the same for Michigan State.

MSU wasn't going to go far this year, I didn't predict that on this board, but I most certainly did to my friends and coworkers.

That team depended on Valentine how UK depended on Ulis and Murray. They weren't built for a deep run, granted I thought they'd make it farther than they did. And I have no idea why some of the "experts" were predicting MSU, anyone who had watched them earlier in the year could have seen how weak they were.

I too, predicted that MSU wouldn't go very far but the reason was I didn't think they had a great point guard.

I just think Izzo gets a free pass when he has bowed out of the tournament in the first or second round more times than Self.

Ummmmm he also has 7 final fours. Listen when Izzo gets to the final 4's he usually gets blown out but at least he gets there.
