Recently 2021 signee Landon Jackson announced that he would enter his name into the transfer portal. With the regular season over and a new regime taking over in Baton Rouge, it isn’t uncommon to see players leave.
Coming out of Pleasant Grove in Texarkana, Jackson was ranked as one of the top 125 recruits in the nation. He was ranked No. 19 in Texas and No. 8 at his position. He was likely to be heavily coveted by plenty of teams. However, it was the Arkansas Razorbacks that landed him according to his Twitter account.

Jackson is the second transfer to commit to play for head coach Sam Pittman. Recently they added former Oklahoma Sooners wide receiver Jadon Haselwood. It appears that Arkansas is loading up to try and make another run at the SEC West. They looked like a team to contend with early on in the season but faltered down the stretch.
When LSU and Arkansas meet in 2022, it will interesting to see if Jackson finds a way to impact that game in Fayetteville.
