Went to YouTube to see him play at IMG. Looks like we got a good one. As noted, he is not afraid to mix it up with some of the toughest players in the country.

Can't find a Jacoi thread - Jacoi and Blue Cain survive and advance, on to the Semis
Blue Cain banked in a 3 at the buzzer for the win!
Jacoi looks like he could start at PG tomorrow in the A10, looks like your protoypical 4 year PG starter, high floor.
Blue Cain looks like a guy you'll see in the NBA in 18 months
ESPN has all of the games including the next rounds...

Blue Cain's stock just rose dtramatically. He hit a turnaround bank shot from just inside halfcourt to lead IMG to a 66-63 win today. Jacoi's season remains alive as IMG plays tomorrow in the first semifinal at 2:30 on ESPN2 (could be on ESPNU but I think on 2). This is the Geico Championships, an 8 team field designed to crown a quote unquote national high school champion.

I peeked at this game. of course, as soon as I peeked IMG opponent went on a tear from 22 down late in the 3rd to a tie. My peeking also saw Jacoi commit 2 to's. Now I only saw a very few minutes so maybe he did better at other times.

Good stat line except for the 8 TO column.

IMG falls apart in the 4th quarter to lose by 18 points (were within 2 at the beginning of the quarter I think).
Jacoi had at least 4 points in the 4th but missed a handful of FTs. Didn't get to see too much of the game though so I'll wait for the boxscore.
