This came out of nowhere...

Must be Withers. Kind of a small linebacker, but Shazier was about the same size.

Its sad that 6'1" is a small linebacker nowadays. :!

Just read the only reason he picked UNC was Withers and he is now trying to get it set up to make a visit to Cbus.

Your recruits belong to us. AHAHAHAHA

That last comment was in my head in the voice from thriller.

Its going to be great having that inroads to north Carolina, they get slept on, but they produce their fair share of top tier talent. Withers will be great with there, as well as virginia, Maryland and dc

Jackson could be a safety...or a STAR in Heacock's nickel package. Think Jermale Hines coming out of Glenville.

Does Jackson have the same size as Hines? I remember thinking Hines always looked really big for a safety, but he still moved like a safety. Would love to have someone like that again lining up at the star position.

Jackson is listed at 6-1 200. Hines was listed coming out of HS at 6-2 200.

North Carolina commit Joseph Jackson impressed by UCF visit, but still likes Heels
January 16, 2012

One of the marquee visitors at UCF this past weekend was was Jacksonville First Coast linebacker and North Carolina commit Joseph Jackson.

Rated three-stars by Rivals.com, Jackson (6-2, 210) has offers from Ohio State, Notre Dame, Auburn, Miami, Louisville, Georgia Tech and others.

According to Jackson, his visit to UCF went well and compared favorably to other campuses he?s seen during his recruitment.

?I got to see a lot of different things, it was a nice visit,? Jackson said. ?I didn?t expect it to be like that at all.?

Jackson was able to see his friend and former teammate, UCF freshman safety Jared Henry. A member of UCF?s 2011 recruiting class, Henry gray-shirted this past season after suffering an injury early in pre-season camp at UCF.

?It was definitely a plus for the whole visit,? Jackson said of seeing Henry.

Jackson returned home to Jacksonville still sold on North Carolina, although he did say he would discuss what he saw with his family and make a final decision a week before Signing Day.

He does not plan on taking any more visits.
