Simi Valley‘s Lorne Jackson is one of the most dynamic players in Southern California and he’s hoping he won’t have to travel too far to display his mad skills in college.

Jackson told Scout.com he has several schools interesting in his services, with the big ones being USC, American, UC Riverside, UC San Diego and Butler. The coaches from San Diego have already put an offer on the table, but Jackson is really hoping he’ll get something from the Trojans.

‘If they offer, that’s where I’ll go,’ he said.

Jackson is averaging a team-best 23.8 ppg and 6.9 rpg this season for the Pioneers, heading into their game against visiting Calabasas on Friday night.
