When talking about the 2020-21 Kentucky basketball roster, the three immediate names analysts and experts bring up as instant-impact players are BJ Boston, Terrence Clarke, and Olivier Sarr. With Boston and Clarke coming in as consensus top-ten high school recruits and Sarr being seen as arguably the top transfer prospect in all of college basketball this offseason, the attention is justified.
But today, college basketball insider Jon Rothstein threw a brand new name into the fold, and it’s one that should get fans excited for the upcoming season.
According to the CBS Sports expert, five-star freshman Isaiah Jackson is turning heads in practice and will have a “big role” in Lexington this season with or without Sarr.
