  • Good story, now we know where Jalen got his skills from. Jalen's a class act.

  • Heavy stuff, Jalen. Much respect to you for telling your story and having the strength to forgive and let go of past wrongs. It's a lesson a lot of us could stand to learn in our own lives.

  • As a 40 year old white guy who grew up with "advantages", so to speak, you might think I'm the prototypical "Jalen-hater" that's come out of the woodwork since the Fab 5 documentary. Not at all. Not only does Jalen speak his mind, but he does so with a level of insight and transparency that's refreshing. Anyone can "keep it real", but very few can do so with the level of context and insightfulness Jalen provides. Well done and keep it up, Jalen.

  • @tpstrat14 He's clearly come to peace with himself. I understand what you're trying to say but I think for him any negative feelings he has are outweighed by the positives. He's got pride in himself.

  • You never hear the whole story. I mean, I'm sure he deals with emotional problems cause of his father, but he hides it well here. "My life is perfect now." I mean, what else can you do. You ain't gonna ask for help over live national tv...

  • @mailman8601 He was being compared with Oscar Robertson when he played in the NBA

  • @RandyNeps21 shut ur mouf jallin bitch...
