Xerath Ult

Xerath's ultiate clearly says he becomes immune to displacement, but can be stunned, etc. So why is it that Jacye's knock back still works on him?

No, it doesn't.

Xerath immobilizes himself and gains three shots of a long-range attack. Xerath ascends to his true form, becoming rooted in place and gaining 3 Arcane Barrages. This magic artillery deals 190/245/300 (+43% Ability Power) magic damage to all enemies hit.The root ends after 10 seconds, when all shots have been fired or when manually deactivated by issuing a move command. If Xerath does not fire off a single Arcane Barrage, half of the cooldown of Rite of the Arcane is refunded. http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/champions/xerath/

He immobilizes himself, but it doesn't make him immune to anything.

From the wiki and ingame tooltip:

ACTIVE: Xerath Root icon anchors himself to his current location for up to 10 seconds, becoming immune to Airborne icon displacement and gaining the ability to cast Rite of the Arcane Arcane Barrage up to three times, but losing the ability to cast his other abilities. Rite of the Arcane ARCANE BARRAGE - ACTIVE: Xerath calls down a blast of arcane energy to the target area which strikes after a 0.6-second delay, dealing magic damage to all enemies within. 「 MAGIC DAMAGE: 190 / 245 / 300 (+ 43.3% AP) 」 Rite of the Arcane can be cancelled early by moving or attacking and automatically ends once Arcane Barrage has been cast 3 times. If Rite of the Arcane ends without using a single cast of Arcane Barrage, half the cooldown is refunded. Rite of the Arcane is canceled and put on full cooldown if Xerath is affected by non-Airborne icon displacement crowd control that prevents or interrupts the casting of abilities.
