Recent stories:

Greene's Take: Jasper took his redshirt year to rehab his left knee all over again, after it never fully healed following microfracture surgery at the end of his freshman season at Kentucky. Now leaner than he's ever been in his collegiate career, Jasper will be a point forward of sorts for the Rebels. He can score, set teammates up to score, rebound and defend four positions. He might not put up huge numbers in any one statistical column, but he'll put up numbers in several of them.
