COMMIT ALERT: Jackson Headed To NC State

NC State just landed a huge commitment from Clayton (NC) consensus four-star defensive end Savion Jackson‍.

Jackson announced his commitment at a press conference a few minutes ago at his high school.  He picked the Wolfpack over South Carolina, Clemson, Alabama, Tennessee, Virginia Tech, and North Carolina among others.

Jackson is rated the No. 3 player in the state by Inside Pack Sports, and he is a consensus four-star recruit nationally.  

RANKING SERVICE OVERALL RANK POSITION RANK NC RANK
Inside Pack Sports 96 N/A No. 3
ESPN 86 (No. 31 Nationally) No. 6 DE No. 1
Rivals 5.9 (No. 123 Nationally) No. 12 SDE No. 2
247 96 (No. 29 Nationally) No. 5 SDE

No. 2

Jackson helped lead Clayton to a 13-1 record in 2017 while totaling 56 tackles and eight sacks.  The 6-foot-3, 260-pounder is capable of being effective against the run or pass, and what makes him so special as a prospect is his motor. 

Like NC State All-American Bradley Chubb, Jackson is relentless in pursuing the football and can impact the game outside of his pass-rushing skills.

Savion Jackson is NC State's 11th commitment in the 2019 recruiting class and the Wolfpack's eighth in-state commitment.  

Inside Pack Sports will have more from Jackson on his decision in the near future so stay tuned!

Savion Jackson attended the Wolfpack's Alpha Wolf Showcase in 2017.
