J. R. Inman, out of St. Joseph Regional High School in
Montvale New Jersey, has made a verbal commitment to continue his basketball
career at Rutgers University.
Gerald, a Senior in 2005, was also offered by N.C. State and was involved
with Maryland, until recently. St. Joe's, West Virginia, and Miami
were also in the picture as well.
"Yes, he has committed to Rutgers," said Mr. Inman. "As a parent I
felt Rutgers is an up and coming program where Gerald can see himself
playing major minutes and can help Gary Waters get to the next level."
Mr. Inman stated that his son's commitment was solid. "He has seen
enough from his AAU games to know what he wants."
J. R. stands at 6'8" and 195 and can play either the three- or four-spot
at Rutgers. "I taught him how to play," stated Mr. Inman, noting that early
on he emphasized to his son the importance of a skilled big-man with
athletic qualities. These sentiments proved prophetic as it is
precisely these set of qualities that separate Gerald from other players his
age - the ability to play both facing the basket and with his back to the
basket, the ability to rebound, and the capability to pass the ball with the
dexterity of a guard. Indeed, it is the all-around game that makes J.
R. Inman special.
