Yes. Well, I knew about it. With Emery, Jimmer, Davies on that team, BYU was

And one KC missed FT away from the elite 8 without Davies

Easy route to the championship?

I said "fairly easy". And that's just in the context of getting to the finals

With Davies they would have had different seeding that year

Correct. They were a projected 1 seed by most.

2/18/20 4:05pm

Of course. But my post had everything to do with BYU playing

Uggghhh...I still remember that missed FT

BYU had 3 NBA players on that roster (Jimmer, K Collinsworth, Davies,) that will

2/18/20 12:30pm

Sure it will. People probably said the same thing in the 80s when the team had

jimmer got so many layups from his steals.

He was arguably one of the best defensive guards in the country

Jimmer couldn't have been Jimmer without Jackson. He doesn't get nearly

he guarded the elbow 3 in that 2-3 zone and that's about it.

I think this is the most common remark about Jackson on this board . . .

True that is a common remark. I think Jackson would have been considered one of

He is Klay Thompson to Jimmers Steph. Plays defense, great catch and shoot, does

2/18/20 1:25pm

I would’ve gone with Pippin and Jordan. But Jax is nicer.

What’s crazy is that he was still a very good defender.

Jimmer actually had good steal numbers

Jimmer had more steals than Jackson entering their JR seasons. Emery had 57 steals (10 & 47) & Jimmer had 77 (27 & 50).

Underrated athlete. He was so incredibly quick.

If memory serves, the TCU coach thought Jackson was very good and as important

love the sig pic....just too bad he never got to experience a win against them.

Dude was amazing as a defender. I honestly believe he could have made an NBA

Jackson is perhaps the most underrated player in BYU history

On here or in the community?

StalwartBraveTrue

I believe he still owns the steals career and game records here at BYU.

2/18/20 3:53pm

Not common, but he was awesome!
