"I liked the campus, the facilities and how everything was set up at Tennessee. I got to see coach Johnson, the running backs coach, and I liked him a lot. He is a very hands on coach, he has been there and he is a cool guy. "I will be back up there April 13 for the Tennessee spring game. I liked it a lot. It felt good up there."
Another school Jackson is planning to visit again this spring is Auburn. He has been in regular contact with
Cadillac Williams, the running backs coach on the Plains, and they are building a strong bond. "Coach Williams has been talking to me a lot and he just keeps wanting me to visit again," said Jackson. "He wants me to get to a spring practice, see how he coaches and what they are doing there. "I really like him and he's making me feel like a top target."
Florida is another school that Jackson has visited already that is going to visit again. Another school outside the south is the one he knows he will visit officially. "
Nebraska is a little farther away, so I am going to take an official visit out there. They are already making me feel like family. "I have talked to almost the entire coaching staff and they are in constant contact. They are staying in constant contact and that means a lot to me. "I also know
Caleb Tannor, a former teammate of mine who is playing there and he has told me a lot of good things about Nebraska. I am not sure when I will take the official visit, but it will be over the summer or early in the season."
Jackson is now taking his time with the recruiting process and he is not ready to name a leader or a group of favorites. That could come later this summer. He is still working to figure out which schools will receive the other four official visits. He is likely to take all five before making a decision. "Before I commit, I will probably get it down to a top five," said Jackson. "With new offers coming in and a lot of visits taking place, things are still changing, so I am not ready for favorites yet."
