Posted May 5, 2015
Class of 2016 guard Frank Jackson is emerging as one of the premier guards in the country, but he’s also dealing with a unique development in his recruitment. The native of Utah will be one of the more college-ready guards in his class when he arrives on campus in 2018 after taking a two-year mission trip as part of his LDS faith. Jackson recently cut his list to 10 schools: Arizona, BYU, Duke, Embry-Riddle, Maryland, North Carolina, Notre Dame, Stanford, UCLA and Utah. (NBC Sports)
