Speedy LSU Freshman Donte Jackson Says He Is Getting Faster

"I always knew I was fast," he said. "From track, I always knew I was kinda fast, but when I came here and got the great work over the summer from (strength and conditioning) coach (Tommy) Moffitt and got speed training and stuff, I feel like they've upped my speed a lot and made my legs stronger and made me just ready to run."

Head coach Les Miles has mentioned in the past that Jackson could see some snaps on the offensive side of the ball, but according to Jackson he has not sat in on any of the offensive meetings so far during fall camp.
