'14 CA CB Adoree' Jackson (Signed with USC)

Absolutely not dropping a hint with the order of teams. From what I was told a few days ago Tennessee is still a very major factor in his recruitment. It helps in a major way that his family in Illinois wants him closer to home and that is still weighing into the final decision.

I've told Paul this and I'll tell everyone here - anyone who makes a "prediction" on Jackson's college home is absolutely, 100 percent guessing at this point. If I say Tennessee here, I could just as easily go to the Florida board and say Florida there and feel just as confident in my pick.

What I've been told is two factors are playing the biggest for him:

1. Relationships with coaches. He's got to trust the guys he's going to play for and that's a huge deal with Jackson, more so than most recruits. If someone comes off as phony, Jackson isn't going to buy it and probably won't go to that school.

2. This might be even bigger. I've been told Jackson's parents are definitely making it clear they'd prefer he be closer to home. This hurts USC some but I'm not sure how much because Sarkisian and his staff are going all out to get him and doing everything possible to convince the parents that he'd be well-treated if he stays in California.

Don't think so. I think I read back a few pages that they are at John Gruden's house in Jefferson County looking for land to build condos :)

A little bit of Adoree info, maybe old but i don't have time to sift through the post and look.

I spoke with Marco Harris today, he is the director of basketball operations here. He and Adoree's father are very good friends. He seemed very sure that the parents have no clue at this point and time who Adoree will choose. According to him, the parents favor Tennessee and would love to see him here. Our coaches have no clue what he's doing either. The coaches still feel UCLA could be a contender here. That's all i have on him. If this is old news i apologize.
