Posted Mar 24, 2013
Justin Jackson, home-schooled since fourth grade, is changing the way people think. "He's putting home-school high school basketball on the map," Warriors coach Karl Rhodes said. Jackson, a 6-7 junior with a soft touch and one of the top players in the country, recently committed to play at North Carolina, picking one of the nation's most storied basketball programs over a slew of others. He will be the first home-schooled player to sign with the Tar Heels. (Houston Chronicle)
