Class act on and off the court. You won't find a classier guy.
I have been following him in the Orlando Summer League and hopes he does as well playing in the Rocky Mountain Revue.
This guy deserves a roster spot. You won't find a harder worker than Jaycee Carroll.
Good Luck and here's to hoping some NBA team picks him up.
Recruiting for university sports isn't a perfect science. If BYU had known JC would turn out this way they might have pursued him differently...hind sight is 20/20 and EVERY school, no matter which one you're posting for on this blog, makes similar mistakes.
Aggies should be glad BYU missed the boat on that one and several others. Back in 80 when I graduated from Preston High School, we had a 4 time state wrestling champ in Cordell Anderson. The Andersons ate and drank BYU. BYU didn't offer him a spot because they thought they had better at his weight class. Cordell went on to be All America at USU. So Aggie fans, rather than slamming the Cougars (even the idiot ones on these blogs) a simple "thank you" would suffice.
Good Luck to JC. There will be an NBA team out there at some point that realizes he should have been drafted!
