A pair of predictions have been made on a four-star defensive back from the state of Florida.
Cornerback [autotag]Ja’Keem Jackson[/autotag] out of Kissimmee (Florida) Osceola is slated to announce his commitment on July 28th, along with teammates [autotag]Derrick LeBlanc[/autotag] and [autotag]John Walker[/autotag]. According to On3’s Corey Bender and 247Sports’ Blake Alderman, the Gators are predicted to come out on top for Jackson’s signature.
The 6-foot-1-inch, 180-pound rising senior was offered by the Florida staff earlier this spring and has made multiple visits to Gainesville in the months since, including a trip on June 20 where he had a one-on-one workout with cornerbacks coach [autotag]Corey Raymond[/autotag].
Raymond is one of the reasons why Bender and Alderman are predicting that Jackson lands in Gainesville. The proximity to home is also a strong factor, with Gainesville around 110 miles north of Jackson’s hometown.
According to On3, Jackson is considered to be a top 50 player in the state of Florida and is considered a 4-star prospect on both On3 and 247Sports. He is also considering Alabama, Auburn, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Penn State.
