I was just going over his stats and it's truly amazing what he is doing this year, and has done for this program during his career. I didn't see a thread like this anywhere else. He's done more than enough to deserve it for sure. With the kind of season he is putting together he will be an All-American candidate and BSC POY for sure. Looking forward to getting back from break to see his hustle and his production on the court!

I've never seen Jesse play in person, but watch the games online alot. I live outside of Salt Lake City, Utah.

I've got a ton of respect for him though, as a great representative of Liberty University & Liberty Basketball!

I've been a Liberty Basketball since 1994. The first game I saw was when Liberty almost stole the show against UNC Tarheels in the first round of the NCAA Big Dance. I had never heard of Liberty University. This game was huge at sharing with people what Liberty is all about on the national stage and basketball scene.

I was at a large Mall in Buffalo, NY and everyone in this large crowd watching this game in the sports store were just literally stunned at what was happening and glued to the TV sets about this possible upset by a No. 16 seed.

I pray that Jesse will make it to the Big Dance in 2012. And more so that Liberty will be given so great an opportunity on the national stage to show people about the greatest university on the planet. I spent almost 10 years of my life (1997 - 2006) in the Liberty community from out of that initial seed sowed back in 1994.

Go Jesse Go!

I winced when I saw the title. I started a similar thread about a freshman a few years ago that become one of the longest in the board's history. It didn't work out so well for us.

But I think we all know where I stand with my HCYA guys.

Jesse is probably going to go down as one of the best to play for us. I think he will probably be a first year HoF member when his turn comes up (2017 I think)
