Freshman Orientation: Justin Jackson

Posted May 30, 2014
Justin Jackson could be putting his feet up right now. The incoming freshman graduated from high school three weeks ago and won’t get to Carolina until the third week of June, in time for the second summer session. High school has ended, and college hasn’t yet begun. It’s that rare time of no responsibilities. Or, it could be. But Jackson isn’t sitting back and resting up before the grind begins. “I’m in the weight room Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and then Tuesdays and Thursdays I’m on the court doing court work,” he says from his home in Tomball, Texas.
