I had the opportunity to interact with Jaden's family several times at the RAC during his short stay on the banks. His father was wonderful with my elderly father, who was having health issues at the time. I'm sorry things didn't work out for Jaden at RU, regardless of the reason, but I wish him well and I hope he makes the best of his opportunity in Germany.
Good luck to him. We all have different paths in life and no hard feelings.
As far as I know, he didn’t cause any trouble, embarrass RU or say anything disparaging about his time at Rutgers.
I’m not sure why fans feel the need to do so about him.
These situations are always a reminder how competitive major D1 basketball is.
Maybe, he simply did not like going to classes.I think most fans were just perplexed by the situation. Seems like he got bad advice from someone and the NBA narrative was just silly. Hopefully he can carve out a nice career overseas.
Maybe, however, I'm sure many players feel that way but understand the benefits make it worth doing something they'd rather not do. That's kinda life, isn't it?Maybe, he simply did not like going to classes.

I think he is in Stage 5 of grief. acceptanceI kind of feel bad for him. I have a feeling he’s going to regret some of his decisions… if he’s not already.
or Macias Grier@ChrisNalwasky how is this going? I’ve seen his name no where after the articles saying he signed.….surprise me, and say it is working out.
or is he playing 1v1 with Lloyd Daniels.

That kids dad really screwed him.. he’ll probably end up slinging burgers at McDonald’s.

I think Jaden plays for their developmental team, not their primary team.He might have missed his flight to germany. No sign of him playing any games last year fir German team he was supposed to be on
He might have bulked up and played on the defensive line for Florida State
Good news is i found Trevion Williams
Didnt find him there eitherI think Jaden plays for their developmental team, not their primary team.
Yeh I checked both as well before restarting the discussionDidnt find him there either
Where in the world is Jaden Jones?
Richie was one of themI seem to recall people questioning why he wasn’t playing. Lol.
Haha yes that’s right. Thanks for the reminder. Lol.Richie was one of them
If you are referring to 3 "supposedly" not in sync players on defense.....what happens if you increase Jones minutes....?? You will get double figures scoring, potentially way more threatening to the defense from perimeter and 3....
What happens if you bump Hyatt from 22 MPG to 28MPG.....?? You are essentially looking at 8.8PPG in 6 of the games where he played around 22MPG....adding another 5 to 6 minutes, means more getting into the game flow, likely adds another 4PPG.
These are what the numbers show....we can isolate this play or that play......I am not sure you are going to get 12 to 13PPG from Mulcahy, he's already at 33 minutes a game....
The math is pretty straightforward (to me).....sure, you may expect Jones to score more in the same amount of limited minutes, which is kinda unrealistic. I don't see a situation where we can ask RHJ to shoot 4 of 6 from 3 and get to 23 points most nights......
The only path (to me) is to spread the shots around, add more minutes per game to Jaden and Hyatt, so BOTH can get into double figure scoring.
Jaden did make some nice training videos though, working on his 3 point shot by himself in an empty gym . . .Im not sure I follow your post as it seems like you’re merging 2 different squads into one.
When Jones was with the team in 21-22, Hyatt was a 12 mpg guy as was Mag. You’d be taking minutes from either Caleb or Geo at the 3 or 2. Mag and Hyatt backed up Caleb and Ron at the 3 and 4.
Jaden’s offense wasn’t nearly as good as you think (or as sweet as it looks in an empty gym with a trainer). He needed time to develop. He didn’t get it because he got convinced he was a pro prospect when he wasn’t even among the top 7 players on that 21-22 roster.
that was a quote from a game thread 3 years agoIm not sure I follow your post as it seems like you’re merging 2 different squads into one.

Should have stayed under pike‘s guidanceI kind of feel bad for him. I have a feeling he’s going to regret some of his decisions… if he’s not already.
