LSU gets the first official visit after the dead period ends the weekend of Jan. 17. He’s a one-time Tigers commit with Ed Orgeron and company working hard to get him back in the fold.
“I’m ready to get back to Baton Rouge, I haven’t seen the new facility yet,” Jackson said before talking about what stands out. “Just the winning right now and how Coach O changed the program. And just my fit in the system.”
**** someone posted that he was roommates w Jacobian Guillory at the All-American game last week. They worked well together according to 247 analysts LINK /
After checking in at 6-1 3/8 and 334 pounds, Guillory showed that despite being a big-bodied tackle, he has some explosion to him. The LSU signee flashed a quick first step and a big push to get into the backfield and he and Jackson combined together inside to cause problems for the West centers and guards.

Sounds pretty good.

A NC Monday and a Jackson commit that weekend would be really sweet

there’s nothing in stone obviously, but the gut feeling from some insiders is that he picks LSU. The hometown “pull” at the last minute is strong in Mississippi though. And by pull I mean boosters paying whatever it takes to keep him at MSU or OM.

Great news, McKinnley Jackson is a kid we need badly on the interior of our D-Line.
He offers something a little different than our other interior D lineman. Because of his unusual quickness for someone that size, he is going to be very difficulr to block.
The more good D lineman we can rotate in, the better our line will perform, and still be able to maintain a good pass rush late in games.
Finish up with Jackson for 2020 on the D line, and get to work on signing Maason Smith and Korey Foreman for 2021. Both those dudes are must gets.

guys like him have a hard time leaving the state. ole miss usually ponies up and does what they need to do.

Jackson, Roy, Guillory, Taylor, Gaye, Ojulari, Webb, Sampah, and White. That kind of front 7 haul is what championships are made of.

I have no real reason to, but I'm worried Kiffin and Co. come in at the last hour and do something to get him to Oxford.
Posted on 1/6/20 at 1:40 pm to TheCaterpillar
That concern would be warranted.

Hasn’t seen the new facility yet? Maybe coming off a natty? Uh oh...

To be fair, George county is not in the heart of Mississippi. I would guess that there are just as many LSU/Bama fans as there are state/ole miss fans where he’s from. With that said I’m sure there will be a little pressure to stay “in state” but not as much if he went to high School further up in north Mississippi

Well this is perfect timing because although Mississippi recruits are tricky and tough to pull, both MSU and Ole Miss are in a state of transition and have not won much lately.

I really like LSU's chances with Jackson
Posted on 1/6/20 at 2:24 pm to geauxGreeks
I trust Ed and I love our staff. I think they could definitely pull this off.
But pulling kids from Mississippi is hard hard.

George County is about two hours close to Baton Rouge than it is to Oxford. Hope that helps.

George County is about 30 minutes from Mobile so you see a lot of Bama there bc they are bandwagoners. I go there quite a bit for work and from what I hear is that he has good grades and a good family and it’s only 3 hours to campus. Hope we land him.

More Bama than anything in that part of the state. Although, LSU is just as long of a drive as MSU for him, with Oxford being even further. It’s normally easier to get kids from southern MS than from around the Jackson area north.

Everyone always said this, and there is some truth. But our starting left tackle is from right outside Starkville. And Next year’s starting QB is from Mississippi. And we’ve had some others over the years.

Our starting left tackle is from Jackson. About an hour and a half from Starkville. We would have landed willie gay if his mother wasn’t adamant that he stay home. With that said he’s been a bit of a problem for state but still a good payer

Brennan, although he played high school ball in Ms, he and his family are Louisiana.
Stanislaus is where many Louisiana kids go to get away.
