It makes no sense especially if jacobs is also part of this move like rumored. Why Would Thatch go there just to battle jacobs for the spot and have to sit out a year. plus theres already a few guards there. So not worried about Fred. Also, he likes that his family can make it to almost every game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slu72 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I don't know why Jacobs would want to leave either. He's basically had to sit out this year because of injuries. Why sit out another. Also, does he really want to live in his little brother's shadow? Now, he could want to go somewhere other than DePaul, but it's likely going to be to a mid major not a P5. He's done nothing to make him that appealing to a P5 school. If he stays here he's got to see where he'll likely get 15-20 mpg backing up KGood and Collins. Also, he might well end up starting at the 2, if JGood stays at PG. He also could beat out Collins for the PG spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseman Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 What is this Jacob leaving rumor comes from? Ford has said over and over that his ankle is just not healing - something like he is at 60%. His mother was impressed with SLU as a school for her son. I agree that why would he want to basically sit out 2 years in a row before playing again.

Through practice, the best players play the most minutes in a game and the next best are in line for coming off the bench. Ford hasn't told anyone that they are being replaced nor has he promised any playing time to any player for next season. Jacobs has played 87 minutes this season, some of them while highly compromised with an injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
