Seton Hall men’s coach Bobby Gonzalez commented today on the signing of Jamel Jackson, a 6-foot-3, 195-pound shooting guard out of Technical Career Institute in Manhattan.
“Jamel is a tremendous shooter with a quick release and he’ll give us another deep range threat,” Gonzalez said. “I think he’s as good of a long-distance shooter as Jeremy Hazell, but he also plays good defense and has impressive size for a two guard. Jamel is the epitome of the kind of guard that I love and has made my system successful over the years.”
Jackson will have three years of eligibility remaining. He averaged 24.5 points per game last year at TCI, shooting 47 percent from the field and 50 percent from the 3-point range.
