it appears that Odom was recruiting Jacobs while at VT.

not sure if he’s seriously considering us at this point. It’s written by the NCSU site, so they aren’t going to say many positives about us.

Jacobs looks the part of a low post beast, and he plays the part as well, despite being undersized. A chiseled specimen who it appears would fit in quite well on the football field, Jacobs utilizes his size to post up smaller defenders around the cup. He has a couple nice post moves, but does need to round out his arsenal down low. In addition, Jacobs is a quality rebounder, due to bot hhis size and his long arms.

recent rivals blurb

[url=http://charlotte.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?Sport=2&pr_key=89234]Nick Jacobs[/url] - Either teams can't figure out that Jacobs is left handed or simply no one can stop him from going over his right shoulder with the left and scoring. At nearly 6-foot-8 with long arms, broad shoulders, and an impressive physique, the 2011 post has been tough to stop down low on the block. He exclusively scores with his left hand, and doesn't show much of a desire to go with the right, but he simply gets buckets. In a morning win Jacobs kept on scoring off of post moves or offensive rebounds. Also he was a presence on the defensive end where he blocked or altered several shots.
