I was watching some of the Xavier/GW game and saw Dante' Jackson in the game. He played 16 minutes and had three points. The Xavier website says he has played in 27 of the team's 29 games. Glad to see he is playing in his Freshman season.

Dante has played in quite a few games, and against St.Joe's Dante had 5 big points in a 4 point Xavier win.

He is well on his way, should be competing for a starting spot next season.

I think Dante could be a starter for any other team in the A10 but Xavier is a very good senior led team

His time will come soon. He is a very talented basketball player.

I would much rather have dante sitting behind an Experienced pg in Drew Lavender then have him out there playing, and not learning anything next year the team is all his.

Xavier has arguably the best senior backcourt in the A10 so its no diss to Dante to not be playing very many minutes. as said above he'll be competing for a starting job next year.

Found it interesting that at crunch time in the GW game that he was being subed in to play defense when the game was on the line. Heck one on the anounces talked about him possible being at 1,000 point score by the time he graduates. Good to see a guy from Southeastern Ohio doing well at the next level!

Heck, I'd put Burrell & Lavender up against just about any backcourt in the country!

Dante is really gaining confindence & will be a leader for this team for the next 3 years.
