Did that say 4.31? What in the heck are they feeding these kids? At my best I ran a 4.52 but a 4.31. That's sick!!!

He's fast, but others have questioned his football prowess... I've heard many put forth the thought that he's a classic track kid in a football uniform, shying away from hits, poor blocking, suspect ball handling skills... Hopefully he can turn this around if the Comets end up having a more productive season this year.

There is one thing you can't teach, its speed. Good coaching can fix most other stuff.

Even if he cant catch all of the time or doesnt want to get hit, you run a 4.31 you will not get hit too often on a deep ball. You could just have certain plays with him where he just runs down field to attract the corner and safties and allow our other WR's to have man-to-man coverage on them.

He knows the area well. I wouldn't mind putting Bobby Williams on the coaching staff just for recruiting.

No favorites early for Jackson. Bobby Williams is his recruiter for Alabama.

Great. Saban and Williams tag teaming Michigan. Almost like a 3rd state school.

Although if we get Baker this week, I will thank Saban.

Jackson up to seven offers $

Has offers from Ohio State, Alabama, MSU, UofM, Illinois, Iowa, and Wisconsin. Plans on making decision after his senior season.

Somehow I have a feeling that he's going to have a lot of offers.

Seems very fast, but fragile.

Key is how he beefs up...but he is getting the offers now regardless.

This kid is the type that Dickrod drools over. He's dying to have him at WR, I guarantee it. This would be a great one to grab and it would have Dickrod really pissed off.

Now that I'm talking Dickrod, I hear he's giving Carlos Brown reps at QB Seriously.

Carlos Brown played QB in HS.
And Michigan hasn't started spring ball yet, so how exactly is RR giving Brown reps at any position?

hey, if he's getting offers from OSU, Bama, Michigan, and Wisky, i'd be more than happy to have him here.
