Georgia football offers 3-star DL Vincent Carroll-Jackson

Georgia football thinks it may have found a diamond in the rough in 2023 defensive lineman Vincent Carroll-Jackson

The Georgia Bulldogs and head coach Kirby Smart have offered a scholarship to three-star defensive line recruit Vincent Carroll-Jackson. Carroll-Jackson is a late-riser in the class of 2023.

It is rare for major college football programs to offer players this late in the process, but Georgia thinks it may have found a diamond in the rough in Carroll-Jackson.

Kirby Smart and Georgia recently added a commitment from five-star pass rusher Samuel M’Pemba. The Bulldogs currently have commitments from just one defensive lineman and two edge rushers. Georgia could easily add another talented defensive line recruit to the equation in the class of 2023.

Carroll-Jackson plays both offensive line and defensive line for Central Dauphin East High School in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The 6-foot-5, 285-pound defensive lineman has only played high school football for one season.

The three-star has scholarship offers from Florida, Rutgers, Ohio, Kent State, among others.

The talented defensive lineman announced his scholarship offer from the Georgia Bulldogs via Twitter:

Rutgers football offers impressive lineman Vincent Carroll-Jackson

Rutgers football offers Vincent Carroll-Jackson.

Vincent Carroll-Jackson is one of the most impressive linemen in the region. Now after Saturday night, Carroll-Jackson is under the radar no longer.

This weekend, Carroll-Jackson was offered by Rutgers football. It was the first Power Five offer for the class of 2023 standout.

It may not be his last.

A 6–foot-5, 280-pound senior lineman at Central Dauphine East High School (Dauphin, PA), Carroll-Jackson is playing football after taking off several years from the sport. He is lining up as an offensive tackle as well as a defensive end.

Earlier this fall, he earned offers from programs such as Buffalo, UConn, New Hampshire, Ohio and Kent State and several others have come rolling in. Rutgers is his first Power Five offer.

He tweeted about the offer on Saturday, shortly after attending Rutgers loss to No. 11 Penn State:

 

This was a bit of a rebuilding year for Carroll-Jackson and his Panthers as they finished with a 3-7 record.
