I went to Syracuse and love Rick Jackson... but he's a 6'9" PF that can't shoot. Strengths are rebounding and hands. Blair makes him redundant

better athlete and much better defender than Blair, Blair has the better offensive game however.

Hard to judge how good of a defender he is coming from Boeheim's zone

Zone defense does show a lot of "help" defense principles and Rick Jackson is a monster helping from weakside, he is a bit undersized but he can really rebound and I think he will be a terrific defender
