With several weeks still to go before the early signing day on November 11th, the 10th member of the D1 Nation has committed to play Division 1 basketball out of our talented Class of 2011. Congratulations to Zaveral Jackson & His Family of Hammond, Louisiana's St. Thomas Aquinas HS, shown below with the New Orleans D1 Ambassadors Elite.
Jackson, a 5'11" PG who is lightning quick, with "mad hops" has committed to play for Coach Bill Kennedy's powerhouse Murray State team which has been the class of the Ohio Valley Conference and a threat to bounce anyone on the National scene.

My friend, Dave Telep of Scout.com calls the D1 Ambassadors the best organization in the country that doesn't rely on a shoe company sponsorship. Who else has 10 verbal commits in the preamble to the NCAA's November early signing period?
I enjoyed watching Zaveral play this summer. He really wowed a gym full of coaches at the Fab 48 in Las Vegas, dunking with abandon over much larger players several times in the event. He's one of those kids that a couple of years from now is going to beat a power conference school and people will scratch their heads and say, "where'd he come from"? The Answer: From the D1 Nation, and the talent rich City of New Orleans, Baby!-Coach Max Ivany
