—————————————

COACH SAYS: Jackson is another 4 year starter for us on the OL. Started to reach his potential last year and was a 1st team OL in the Mid Penn Capital. We have seen his potential since he was a Freshman. Could be completely dominant if he decides to be. Needs to find the inner monster and be mean every single play between the whistles. Has at times found it. Smart, athletic for a big man. Showed it last year returning a INT for a 60+ yd TD from his DT position on a screen pass he read. Very important part of our OL and our plans for the season’s success. He needs to lead the group and develop the bulldozer mentality our OL needs to play with. Jackson is always willing to help with any volunteering or off field community work that we ask for help with.
