As one of the top linemen in the Peach State, Jackson drew some notable interest, picking up scholarship offers from 26 programs. Jackson told Hayes Fawcett of Rivals that he committed to Florida over Georgia and LSU.
With Jackson on board, Florida now has 18 commitments for its 2027 class, the first full cycle for new head coach Jon Sumrall and his staff. The class is particularly strong on the offensive line, where Phil Trautwein has landed 4 blue-chip recruits. Jackson joins 5-star OT Maxwell Hiller, 4-star OT Elijah Hutcheson and 4-star IOL Peyton Miller in the class.
