Basketball recruiting analyst addresses Ian Jackson-Rick Pitino rumors

Posted Mar 23, 2023
What I know for sure on the Ian Jackson to St. John’s rumor admittedly isn’t much right now. I texted with somebody in the know this week about this rumor, and that person said, "he was still all UNC [Tuesday] and shot everything down (when the Rick Pitino hire was made), but he’s open to hearing about it now." It still feels like a long shot as of today. (Rivals.com)
