David Jenkins jr. PG

Why else would you continue to say the Utah year was a fluke and keep mentioning what he did his other 3 years at lower levels?
I’ve said his numbers will be similar to his Utah year and you continue to tell me I’m wrong. Since I think he will be around 8.5 ppg, you must think he’s in the 12-15 range since you continue to argue.
An 8-word post. Great.
If David can score 8 ppg he will do better than Gillis, Furst, IT, and several others last year. I think that would be a great addition to the team, right? If he can score closer to 12-15 ppg like he did before playing for that losing team, that’s even better! Sounds like a great player to add to the team to me.
Why are there so many negative comments? Averaging 8 ppg is better than most of the starters not named Edey or Ivey.

Because that’s what the Knuckleheads do. 😉If David can score 8 ppg he will do better than Gillis, Furst, IT, and several others last year. I think that would be a great addition to the team, right?

This rational doesn't work because even really bad teams score a lot of points and given teams are made up of individuals somebody has to score those points.If David can score 8 ppg he will do better than Gillis, Furst, IT, and several others last year.

For example Nebraska scored 73 points per game last year and was last in the B1G (Purdue 79). Like Purdue, Nebraska had 4 guys score 8 or more points. Do you really believe all 4 of these guys would have scored 8 points per game if they played for Purdue? Given Nebraska's results my guess is 1 or 2 wouldn't even have played and if they did their role would have been similar to that of Morton, IT or Newman.
Bottom line if Purdue isn't an above average team and some of the other guards can't step it up, I can see Jenkins scoring 8 to 10 points per game. However, given his history if he is our #2 or #3 scoring option we're not going to be competing for a B1G championship.
Averaging 8 ppg would be fine. However, averaging 8 ppg while being very inefficient is not fine. He’s been very inefficient in both of his last two stops.If David can score 8 ppg he will do better than Gillis, Furst, IT, and several others last year.

As I’ve said, he will make for solid depth at the guard spot, but this doesn’t move the needle for us.
You have no idea how this is going to play out this season or how Jenkins is going to do but I’m sure you’ll be the first on here to say “I told you so” if he doesn’t perform to your expectations.
You’ve done nothing but crap on this guy ever since it was stated that Painter was pursuing him.
Instead of constantly ripping on the player maybe you should express your concerns directly to Painter and ask him “What the hell are you thinking, Matt?”
Just like I’m sure you will be the first here to say “I told you so” if you are proven correct.
I’m certainly not the only one questioning this guy. The lead writer on this site has stated multiple times that he doesn’t address the biggest weakness heading into the off-season. Brian also predicts he won’t start. Seems pretty in line with what my thoughts are.
I would love to see that happen. For those that seem to think they know better than the head coach, why aren't the on the phone with him right now? Do they not care about the program? They should stop settling and pick up the phone.
Has Karpick invoiced him yet for the new server he needed to house all the Wolegabbery?
