I don't know what kind of pro Darnell Jackson will become, but it sure is nice to see the guy get drafted. He really picked up his game his senior year despite having about everything you can imagine go wrong in his life during his career at KU. Outstanding character and exceptionally hard worker.
I agree, he came off the bench for 3 years without any complaining and was huge for us this year. How many games did he have that were around 16 points and 9 boards on 6-7 shooting. Huge!
I believe Darnell will develop into an excellent NBA player.
If his senior year was any indication of what Darnell is capable of, he will really surprise a lot of coaches in the years to come.
Very happy to see that Rush, Chalmers, Arthur and Jackson were all drafted. It's been quite an amazing year.
