Michigan State Football has taken another big swing in the recruiting front, this time offering 2021 4-star athlete Dink Jackson out of Eau Gallie High School in Melbourne, Florida. Jackson is currently projected by 247sports to go to Florida State.
While Jackson is projected to go to his local school in Florida State, it is very important to note that Michigan State’s new Defensive Backs coach Harlon Barnett was the Defensive Coordinator for the Seminoles until Mel Tucker joined MSU as head coach.
Here is the offer announcement for Jackson, which was publicized by his high school football coach:

Jackson is listed as an “athlete” on 247sports, meaning that he is a versatile player who hasn’t locked into one role yet, although one of their affiliated scouts Andrew Ivins noted that he feels Jackson is best suited as an edge rusher. Jackson is the No. 33 ranked player in the state of Florida per 247sports.
