Rivals.com releases 2016 basketball recruit rankings
Posted Sep 18, 2013
When looking at the class of 2016 and who should start off ranked at the top, three names kept coming up over and over again: Six-foot-6 shooting guard Josh Jackson from Detroit (Mich.) Consortium, 6-foot-9 power forward Harry Giles from High Point (N.C.) Wesleyan and seven-footer Thon Maker from Martinsville (Va.) Carlisle. For now, we give Jackson the slight edge in what is essentially a photo finish among the three.
