}}Willie Jackson is an American former college basketball stand-out and current high school head coach.[1][2]

Playing career

High school

Jackson grew up in Webster Parish, Louisiana and attended Sibley High School from 1976–77 to 1979–80.[2] During his junior and senior years, Sibley won 100 straight games, including a perfect 58–0 season in 1979–80 which ended with a state championship.[2]

College

Willie Jackson decided to stay in Louisiana and signed to play at Centenary College of Louisiana, an NCAA Division I institution. He played basketball all four seasons and graduated as the most prolific scorer in both school and Trans America Athletic Conference (modern day Atlantic Sun Conference) history.[1] Between 1980–81 and 1983–84, Jackson played in 114 games and recorded 2,535 points, 1,013 rebounds, 112 blocks and 205 steals.[3] Through the 2009–10 season, these rank him first, second, first and third in Centenary history, respectively.[3] Only Hall of Famer Robert Parish grabbed more rebounds (1,820).[3] He scored 30 or more points in a game 21 times and had a career high of 41.[3] When Jackson's career ended, he was one of only seven players in Division I history to have scored 2,500+ points and grabbed 1,000+ rebounds.[1] He is still the only TAAC/Atlantic Sun Conference player to be honored as the Conference Player of the Year three times (1982 through 1984),[1][2] and upon graduation was only the fourth Division I player ever to earn three conference player of the year awards.[4]

Jackson was drafted in the fourth round (74th overall) in the 1984 NBA Draft by the Houston Rockets, although he never played in the league.[5]

Coaching career

Jackson was the head boys' basketball coach Loyola College Prep in Shreveport, Louisiana.[2] His previous coaching experience also included a stint as an assistant coach for Centenary.[4]

Through the 2008–09 boys' basketball season, Jackson has become the winningest coach in school history, leading the Flyers to three playoff berths, a school-record 27 wins in 2007–08, three 20-win seasons (the most of any coach in school history), and his 118 wins was 40 more than the next closest head coach at Loyola Prep.[2] He was also named the Coach of the Year on The (Shreveport) Times All-City team in 2004–05.[2] He was terminated as head coach at the end of the 2012 season.[6]

As of 2012–13 Willie Jackson is the head coach at Central High School in Grand Cane, Louisiana.
