Michael Jordan Hall of Fame, Marcus Jordan selects a college
Michael Jordan was elected to the class of 2009 on Monday, set for induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame in September with his Dream Team teammates David Robinson and John Stockton. Induction is Sept. 10-12 in Springfield, Mass., home of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
On Monday, Marcus Jordan made his collegiate choice and the winner is, the University of Central Florida. Many might see Jordan’s name and wonder why he’s not going to a premier school. Strategically, it’s actually a pretty smart move. He was being recruited by a host of good programs, but nowhere truly “elite”. A strong year at UCF could set him up for a Seth Curry-esque transfer to one of the big boys that might not have considered him straight out of high school. There are options here. Marcus may never be as good as his father, but how many kids get college scholarships to play basketball? Not too shabby, when you really think about it.
