Player Jacob Grandison

[Pantone287]

Seems like it's about time for a thread for "Slim Jake".

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

The two questions I always start with when evaluating a player:

1. Can he shoot?

2. What is his skin color?

Please let us know.

Hell ya

Nice to add a good corner 3 pt shooter to the roster.

 

[Pantone287]

I predict Roach-Proccy-Whitey-Slim Jake-Lively will be the lineup that gets a 5-paragraph SMTTEM post in January for being far and away our most effective.

Feel like we used to prioritize corner threes more than we've done in recent years. Maybe that says more about our lack of shooting than anything else. But I'd like to get back to that.

We can have a "Where's your grandma (point towards State bench)? Here's our grandson (point to player)!" chant when State comes to town and he hits a 3.

fucking massive. This wasn’t the plan. But it’s enough to get us back into the contender conversation.

Proctor and Grandison have given Duke the requisite shooting. Grandison gives us necessary age and defensive chops. And Proctor gives us a good secondary ball handler. I like the roster in theory.

 

[StopThePumpFakesShav]

Only issue is that I read elsewhere he technically still needs a waiver since he entered the portal after the deadline and is a second time transfer (even tho he’s a grad). But he has a good case since he already sat a year before Illinois. And I’m sure it has been vetted already with the right people.

I wish CMon were here to do a minutes summary and the variety of lineups we could play

I only want to know if he has rippling back muscles.

 

[DrKlahn]

He was at Illinois? I don’t even remember this guy. I must have been too busy watching Cockburn.

I hope Slim Jake will be a good replacement for Fat Trevor.

 

[deepdarkblue]

I went looking for more videos of him and found this.

 

[rhfarmer]

That crossover to step back triple in the opening scene is money.
