Jair Johnson '17 Recruiting Profile

Hello, My name is Jair Johnson and I' am 15 years old. Unlike most recruits i take my academics extremely seriously. This quarter I maintained a 3.6 GPA. I want to play professional basketball and i believe I' am good enough to do it. I also speak very well so there is no question about my education and my character is different from the others as well. I' am well mannered and it is said that I' am nice and I positively lead my peers to the fullest potential. I' am a freshman playing on varsity. I play for a smaller school called Pine Forge Academy. I have a lot of promise and am hardworking. My coaches in the past say I have a good handle on the ball, an high basketball I.Q and am i very good play maker. One thing about me I will never stop working, basketball is survival of the fittest and whoever wants it and is willing to work the hardest will succeed. There is always going to be someone out there that is better than me but that will never stop the burning passion I have for the game of basketball. As one of the greatest basketball players in the NBA right now said,"Hard work beats talent, when talent fails to work hard." What he said in this statement says it all. It is not about the talent but it is about the hard work and the effort you put in.
