Michigan’s new linebacker coach sends out first offer

It begins! #GoBlue

Michigan moved on from linebacker coach Chris Partridge late last season and has finally gotten a replacement on board with Brian Jean-Mary officially able to recruit.

Jean-Mary, who formerly worked at Tennessee, Texas, and Michigan, has been touted throughout his career as an elite recruiter. Wolverine fans are seeing his ability on the trail in real-time as the new man on campus extended his first official offer during his second stint at Michigan to South Florida linebacker Ty Jackson.

Jackson currently holds a grade of .9575 from the 247Sports Composite and is listed as the 86th player nationally. However, On3 has Jackson graded as the 16th player nationally and the top linebacker overall. Either way, Jackson is a consensus elite recruit and would be a massive win for the Wolverines on the trail.

So, is Jackson actually interested? Yes. At least, he should be.

Jackson released a top school list in late February that was composed of Alabama, Georgia, Penn State, Florida, Miami, Florida State, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Miami, and Syracuse.

From that list, three schools should stick out: Penn State, Syracuse, and Tennessee. Firstly, the inclusion of two schools outside the South shows that Jackson is willing to level the region. That is a huge plus. Secondly, Jean-Mary was Jackson’s primary recruiter at Tennessee and it’s probably safe to assume that Michigan is right up there with his top schools following the offer.

Michigan is looking to finally capitalize off the on-field success of the last three seasons with elite recruits, and Jackson would be a massive first step in that plan. Michigan lost a commitment from another South Florida top-100 prospect in Chris Ewald in the days following the national title game, but it is good to see that the staff has not given up on the most talent-rich area in the country.

Penn State getting official visit from elite four-star linebacker

Penn State is looking forward to hosting this key linebacker recruiting target.

Penn State continues their efforts in the 2025 recruiting class to add as many talented prospects as possible.

With the Big Ten expanding, there is more need for talent now than ever.

The Nittany Lions have done a great job at landing early commitments from many players in the class so far, but there is still plenty of time for them to add more to areas of need.

One position they continue to target is linebacker.

Despite having three commitments already from four-stars [autotag]DJ McClary[/autotag], [autotag]Alex Tatsch[/autotag] and [autotag]Dayshaun Burnett[/autotag], they are heavily recruiting another four-star from the state of Florida.

[autotag]Ty Jackson[/autotag] is rated as the No. 115 player in the country and 14th-best linebacker according to On3’s Industry Rankings, but On3’s new updated rankings have him much higher as the best linebacker in his class and the No. 16 player overall.

At 6’1″ and 205 pounds, he is a downhill player who gets into the backfield quickly with his speed.

Jackson has started to have offers from high-profile programs pour in recently with just under 30 offers, many from elite schools across the country.

According to Chad Simmons of On3, he’s locked in an official visit to Penn State for the weekend of May 31. He’s visiting three others across the SEC and ACC in an official capacity this summer and plans on seeing others in the spring. Simmons also said that Jackson is not rushing into a decision with the elite prospect telling him it will likely come after his senior season in high school (subscription required).

Penn State currently sits third in On3’s Recruiting Prediction Machine with a 18.8% chance to land a commitment with Georgia leading the way at 25.1% and Tennessee second with a 21.9% chance.
