There is never this much smoke in one direction and it not turn out that way.

This one has been signed, sealed, and delivered my friends.

Miami 247sports website is posting that Jackson is heading to Knoxville. Not sure if that's been posted already but I just saw it!

Not literally headed here now...lol...but going to give verbal to UT

 

[vols_fan_68]

Yes, tomorrow night during the Under Armour game. It's on ESPN at 7.

Who else can we expect to commit ?

 

[TNHopeful505]

Nobody. That's the only one we have a shot with

ESPN looks at the match up of OG Marcus Jackson vs DT Anthony Johnson

f Jackson, from Vero Beach, Fla., who can fire off the ball low, get under defenders' pads, roll his hips and knock them on their heels, he can catch Johnson playing with high pad level and push him back in the run game. That being said, it will be interesting to see how Jackson can handle the combination of size, power and quickness that Johnson possesses. Johnson's get-off along with his power could cause problems for the physical Jackson in pass-rushing situations. While Jackson is best known for his tenacious run blocking he has displayed better-than-expected ability as a pass blocker, which could make this matchup even better. This battle between two big men with good tools and tenacious styles should make for some good battles in the trenches.

You don't think Richadson might not make a push for starting RT?

Agreed. Our OL is going to be great and there really isn't a lot of knacks on them, but just from the looks of this year we are better at pass protection than run blocking and Jackson will be a huge pick up for us because of that. Put him next to James and you've got one dominating side of a line.

This is crap, they should not be posting crap until he announces and let him have his time.

 

[SpringBokVol]

Agree. Let him get some attention tonight with the spotlight on.

 

[Volunteer08]

We all come on here and practically beg for it. We post constantly about the slightest news that hints he could be more interested in one school or another. You can't blame the reporters for feeding the frenzy we put out. That's just the way the media cookie crumbles these days.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

seems like the VFL program helped seal the deal

 

[Montrell Hardy]

Easily one of the Top 5 prospects they will land in this class. He's a legit National Top 100 type talent.

Chris Nee of Rivals is on the Jackson to Tennessee bandwagon:

OG Marcus Jackson, 6-2/315, Vero Beach (Fla.)
Rankings: 3-star, No. 13 at position
Finalists: Miami, Michigan State, Tennessee
The buzz: Jackson was a long-time commitment to the Miami Hurricanes but decided to re-open his recruitment after the school fired head coach Randy Shannon. Prior to officially re-opening his recruitment he took official visits to Michigan State and Tennessee, though the Spartans appear to be the least likely option for him. Jackson was very impressed when he visited Rocky Top, commenting how everything seemed like a big family. He also felt he could contribute immediately upon arriving on campus. New Miami coach Al Golden has made an in-home visit and gotten him to take an official visit to campus, but the vibe from others at the game is that Jackson will be playing in the SEC. We agree.
Prediction: Tennessee

im still hoping marcus puts the miami hat...

 

[SpringBokVol]

Expect Marcus to get a little ratings/star bump as well if he can handle Johnson.

 

[n_gerard07]

I expect him to get a demotion after committing to us...

I have a grave prepared for those "hopes." Comes complete with a tombstone and everything. The epitaph reads: "Here lies miamicane's hopes for Marcus Jackson."

Just in case.

Of course, you can use that grave to bury my hopes for Marcus, as well.

Just in case. :lol:

Dont expect Jackson to get a bump, usually Rivals wont bump them after the All Star games if they are EEs.
