The recruitment for five-star forward [autotag]G.G. Jackson[/autotag] finally appears to be coming to an end. After a few weeks of waiting for a decision, Jackson is reportedly set to make his announcement sometime next week.
While playing at an AAU tournament this weekend, Jackson told Jeff Borello that he is 100% committing sometime next week. He will have a press conference at his school in South Carolina to make the decision and end his recruitment.
This is certainly good news for UNC as they remain the favorites to land Jackson. The Tar Heels recently emerged as the favorites, holding the crystal ball lead on 247Sports, and at this point, it would be shocking not to see them land him.
Elite junior GG Jackson says his college decision is “100%” coming next week. Plans to have a press conference at his school. North Carolina is the perceived favorite — Hubert Davis and Sean May watched him tonight, as did Frank Martin and Lamont Paris.
