not going to name names. last time i said something about a early commitment he ended up at Georgetown

Well, his name fits in with our school

And is Larry Taylor still a solid commit? If so this gives us 3 PGs for next season (Andrews, Taylor and Chene Phillips).

I believe Taylor is still on board .. albeit for four years instead of two for Andrews.

Jesse will be leaving some enormous shoes to fill.

Hmm... Appears he was nominiated for consideration in TN for McDonalds All America Team. http://www.t-g.com/story/1608189.html

Also that he did not get to finish his senior senior season in high school. http://www.tennessean.com/assets/pdf/DN151732211.PDF

In addition to qualifying academically it will be interesting to see how he has matured and what he has learned in the past year (two by the time he gets here).

Believing LU Basketball is on the verge of something great since 1991. The Cubs won a World Series so why not LU to the Sweet Sixteen?!

Unfortunately it doesn't appear that he made it in. This would explain the 'ship available for Jourdan.

I would think this will mean Davon Marshall will become a full-time PG, and will probably be the starter there. It hurts our depth, with only a true freshman and a walkon behind him and huge shoes to fill.

Your thinking is accurate. Davon will have the rock in his hand the majority of the time this season. But the staff seems to be really excited about Larry Taylor as well. And as JC continues to show improvement in his ball-handling, he certainly will get a chance as well.
