Four-star power forward Isaiah Jackson verbally committed to Kentucky on Saturday, he tells 247Sports.
“I picked them because Kentucky has always been a dream school of mine because they bring in top notch guys and turn them into pros,” Jackson said. “I just feel like me being there with the team we have I have a chance to win National championship and also fulfill my ultimate goal of being a pro.”
Jackson, a standout at Mott Waterford (Mich.) Mott, had narrowed his list of schools down to Kentucky, Alabama and Syracuse. Jackson took official visits to all three of his finalists, including a trip to Kentucky the weekend of Aug. 31.
“Really to be honest it’s always been like the place for me,” Jackson told 247Sports. “When I was on the visits and when I made my top three, I was like ‘I don’t know.’ After I came back from my Alabama visit I sat down with my family and that’s when I finally decided that’s the school for me.”
