Chandler Jackson is narrowing things down with his recruitment after taking several visits, but he still wants to take a few more trips before taking the next step.

“I have taken official visits to Auburn and Missouri and unofficial visits to Ole Miss and Memphis,” Jackson said. “I’m officially visiting Kansas but I don’t know the date, but they want me to. I know I am going on Oct. 1 for an unofficial visit with them. On September 24-26 I am taking an official visit to Virginia Tech.”

RIVALS' REACTION

Jackson is a big-bodied guard, very strong and sturdy with long arms. He plays with a great pace and is very calculated in the half court. Never rushed, he is able to get to his spots and make a play, whether it be knocking down a pull up jump shot or finding an open teammate. While Jackson does not have elite speed and pop, his uses his strength to defend, especially in the passing lanes.
