Nick Jackson

I've gotten word this afternoon that Atlanta (GA) LB Nick Jackson is eyeing an official visit to Texas A&M on the weekend of Dec 14th. That would be the same weekend that the Aggies would host top DE target David Ugwoegbu as well as long time commit Kenyon Green.Word I got is that Jackson will visit with Bradley Dale Peveto in person tomorrow in Atlanta.

The coaches continue to scour the state a parts of the nation this week with a couple of interesting stops along the way today. Coach Peveto is headed to Atlanta to see LB Nick Jackson. Jackson is committed to Virginia, and I believe BDP is just stopping in to say hello and check on how things are going with Nick. In other words, I don't believe this one gets serious unless something happens with Christian Harris......which, as I've learned this morning, is seemingly less likely as the days pass. Christian and his family have been in touch with multiple members of the A&M staff since Monday morning. The Harris family will host Elko and Peveto on Thursday, then from what I know, the two A&M coaches will return to Baton Rouge to see Christian play in the state championship the following week should University High advance (which is likely). Things seem to be steadying in the Aggies favor on this front, but we've seen what Bama can do in December convincing Bobby Brown to flip last season before A&M ultimately got him back. It's going to be a dog fight but one the A&M coaches are up for. Offensive coordinator Darrell Dickey will see his fair share of quarterbacks this week. He'll head to Georgia to check in on commit Zach Calzada, and then he'll see a trio of underclass signal callers - Malik Hornsby and Ken Seals in 2020 then Preston Stone in 2021. As Jason first reported Dickey met with Ainias Smith yesterday. He's becoming a familiar face in Ft Bend ISD and south Houston in general. I'm told he also checked in at Ft Bend Hightower ( Smart Chibuzo), Shadow Creek ( Xavion Alford and Alec Bryant), Manvel ( Layden Robinson), and a source at Ft Bend Marshall told me Dickey wanted to make sure and see 2020 speedster Devon Achane. There are a lot of top underclass targets getting visits this week, especially along the OL. You saw Jimbo stop in at Bellaire Episcopal yesterday to see Donovan Jackson and Cullen Montgomery. Jim Turner will see Bryce Foster and Hayden Conner at Katy Taylor as well as Reuben Fatheree at Richmond Foster. All three of those kids are likely top 10-15 kids in the state with Fatheree holding the number one spot in our TexAgs rankings. Lastly, a fast rising name to know in 2021 is Cody Jackson at Richmond Foster. He just picked up an OU offer, and I had one contact down that way tell me that he looks like a young CeeDee Lamb. Turner will undoubtedly check him out while at the school.

Every Friday Jason Howell locks in on three recruiting thoughts, and today he builds his personal draft board for the prospects the Aggies are pursuing outside of Texas. He also adds some names to watch in future years who haven't quite cracked the rankings.
