Mick Cronin Hires Antwon Jackson From UMass
I was out of town last weekend and as a result wasn’t able to give my two cents about this hiring other than a couple of Tweets. Better late then never, right? Jackson’s specialty is recruiting and doing so by maintaining his series of connections at AAU programs in the Maryland and Virginia areas. His hiring will be invaluable going forward to get the best AAU players from these regions. Terrific addition.

It’s amazing having an athletic director who knows what he’s doing. While most of this isn’t revenue generating the practice courts for UC basketball was in much need of upgrades and this could be a precursor to renovations of 5/3rd Arena and Nippert Stadium. Whit Babcock is clearly at least researching the possibilities.
