American Christian Academy (Philadelphia), the place where Tyreke Evans, Jeremiah Kelly (DePaul), and Jelani Poston (UIC), Michael Glover (Seton Hall), Keenan Ellis (UAB), Marcus Relphorde (Saint Louis) all hailed from.
The institution has come under fire for being one of what the NCAA calls a "diploma mill" that exists for basketball and not really for education.
