Still a junior in high school, Jackson is a 6-foot-1, 215 pound prospect that projects as a linebacker at the college level.
Jackson ranks as a four-star recruit and the No. 282 player in the country according to the 247sports composite rankings. Jackson also ranks as the No. 19 linebacker in the country and the No. 6 player in the state of Michigan.
While the Kentucky game is unlikely to live up to the atmosphere and electricity of the Florida or Alabama games, Jackson will see a rowdy Neyland Stadium for the 7 p.m. ET top 20 matchup.
