Per Verbal Commits -- Chaffey College (JC) 6'8' PF Adom Jocko has committed to the Lions. He was named to the CCCAA All-State Team last year.

Typo and possible Freudian Slip - his last name is Jacko.

Read that Steve Lavin was also looking at him recently. From the clip I found online he is an athlete that can roll to the basket well (and finish strong. There were a ton of impressive Alleyoops) but doesn't seem to have much of a post game.
College Highlights:

Nice pick-up if he stays committed. Very athletic, he's very much a post guy, with mid range shooting. Can get off the floor quick. Again, not a super star but a very nice player.
GO LIONS!!!

Thanks Pumpfake Listed as 210 lbs in last season's roster - no stats available but level of competition was pretty low. Looks like another Kevin Young with a bit more bulk in the films - very athletic and leaps! He does make one jumper. Wonder if he is as big a pest on defense as Kevin was? Nice get if it holds!
Agree with guarddad - a solid player.

Adom Jacko has signed his LOI. Its my understanding he won't be playing at Chaffey this year to focus on his academics.

Has anyone on the coaching staff talked to Jacko about watching what he tweets. I just looked at his twitter feed and there is some really questionable stuff on there.

Questionable pictures (pornographic) and one tweet that was derogatory towards women.

Damion Lillard has the same issues with his tweeting but here he is an all-star PG for Portland. Seems to be a cultural thing with a large group of athletes.

PS I definitely don't condone such commentary and am a bit disappointed in his character as inferred from his tweets. Maybe, the LMU environment can set his mind right?
