Rick Pitino sold on Ian Jackson changing position…
Rick Pitino believes he discovered his subsequent level guard Monday.
Ian Jackson, the most recent high-profile switch to decide to St. John’s, goes to be the man.
“I think he’s a natural point guard like Kadary [Richmond] or [former St. John’s point guard] Daniss Jenkins,” the Hall of Fame coach advised The Post hours after the North Carolina star picked St. John’s over USC, Georgia, Illinois and a host of others. “Daniss, when he first began out [with me at Iona University], actually wasn’t a level guard and when he left he epitomized what a level guard needs to be. I feel it’s the identical factor with Ian. That’s his position.
“He has great vision, he sees the floor really well, he has a great handle, great size for a guard. He’s explosive. I think he’s much more of a one than a two or a three.”
