Blue-chip lineman recruit Kennedee Jackson likes Florida football
Blue-chip recruit Kennedee Jackson, who can play either side of the line of scrimmage, "likes" Florida after recent spring visit.
The Swamp played host to a group of high school recruits this week who are looking to get a closer look at what the Florida Gators have to offer them at the next level of competition. Among those in attendance was Kennedee Jackson, a four-star offensive tackle out of Lithonia (Georgia) in the 2027 cycle. Standing at 6-feet-6-inches and weighing 297 pounds, Florida's coaching staff sees potential for him both on the offensive and defensive line, but is leaving it up to him to make the choice.
"They show much love as well, and they want me for two different positions," he told 247Sports previously. "They're a great staff. " Jackson noted that after Saturday's visit , "They said it's still my choice.
" While the Peach State product is clearly high on the Orange and Blue, he does not currently have any sort of school rankings in mind. "I still don't really have a list. I like Florida," Jackson offered.
The blue-chip prospect will visit the LSU Tigers on Monday and Tuesday, and follow that up with a stop at the Tennessee Volunteers on April 9. Jackson has a packed schedule this summer with six official visits set, including two early ones in April. He visits the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (April 10-12) first, followed by LSU (April 17-19), Florida (May 28-30), the North Carolina Tar Heels (June 5-7), Georgia Bulldogs (June 12-14) and Auburn Tigers (June 19-21).
