Seton Hall lands Mizzou transfer Tray Jackson
By ADAM ZAGORIA
Seton Hall continued its offseason roster transformation with the addition of Missouri transfer Tray Jackson.
Jackson, a 6-foot-8 combo forward out of Detroit, appeared in 26 games last season and averaged 2.9 points and 1.8 rebounds in 8.1 minutes per game. He will sit the 2020-21 season (unless a waiver is granted) and then have three years of eligibility.
Jackson initially committed to Minnesota out of Sunrise Christian Academy (KS) before then choosing Mizzou over Seton Hall in the fall of 2018.
Jackson is considered a talented player with looming questions about his conditioning, motor and effort.
Pirates coach Kevin Willard is known for coaching players up and getting the most out of them, so he has obviously decided Jackson is worth the scholarship.
Seton Hall last week officially announced the addition of Harvard grad transfer Bryce Aiken, the Randolph, N.J. native who committed April 9.
The Pirates are also losing three players to transfer: sophomore guard Anthony Nelson, junior forward Taurean Thompson and sophomore forward Darnell Brodie, who committed to Drake.
Junior forward Sandro Mamukelashvili is testing the NBA Draft waters.
The Pirates are also involved for reclassifying Patrick School power forward Adama Sanogo, who is also considering Pitt, Maryland, Nebraska and others in addition to Seton Hall. He is not expected to decide until later this spring or summer.
