Are you excited to get your commitment over with?
Up until this point I’ve been — I’m content with my decision. I appreciate every school that has been here. I feel like I’ve thought about it, evaluated every school thoroughly, enough to get to the point of making a decision.
When did you make your mind up?
It came to me earlier this week after sitting down with my parents, my coaches. Talking about each and every school, the pros and cons of each school, thinking about each school individually about how they can make me become a pro.
What separated your finalists from others recruiting you?
The majority of them come down to coaching. All schools have great coaches and all have history of putting kids in the league.
What intrigues you about Kentucky?
Their history of putting pros in the league, getting guys in the league. One-and-done guys, specifically, NBA guys thriving in the league.
Jackson also took visits to Arkansas, LSU, Oregon and North Carolina.
