We are going to hear the term Jelly Fam quite often over the next few years, so might as well take a look at what it's really about. While I was familiar with the term, I never really understood it's meaning or how it came about. Quite frankly, I thought it was all about showboating, but after reading the article linked below, it's much more than that. Isaiah Washington comes across as a very well grounded and humble young man who has connected with the youth of NYC. He has an incredible following with about 37K followers on twitter. If IW is eligible this season, you better get your tickets for the home opener as soon as they go on sale. Between the combination of the upgrades to the HAC, Iona having a loaded team and Washington playing his first home game this game will be sold out, with the press covering the game like it's a Iona-Manhattan game. pretty good stuff. Good read on the whole Jelly Fam deal thelab.bleacherreport.com/jelly-fam-new-york-city-basketball-isaiah-washington/ |

The NCAA is forming a committee to possibly allow college athletes to make money off of their name and likeness. If this passes, with the following he has, Washington might be able to fund the upgrades to the locker rooms and coaches offices himself  |
