WR James Jackson (transfer to Wayne State)

[TresselstillownsTSUN]

Given our youth at WR, this move would make no sense. Give a 3rd year Sophmore the boot to play redshirt freshmen?

In Tressel's entire history he has always honored a kids scholarship!

As mentioned upthread, Jackson ended up at Wayne State:

Caught 4 passes for 128 yards and a score last year...ran back two of his 11 kickoffs for scores.

Also didn't travel for any of Wayne's playoff games for unspecified reasons.

Ex-Grand Ledge star Jackson finds new home at Wayne State

Saturday could have been a homecoming at Spartan Stadium for James Jackson.

Turns out, he?s already plenty happy in his new home.

The former Grand Ledge High star spent his first two years of college football playing for Ohio State before transferring to Wayne State prior to last season. And the redshirt junior wide receiver keeps his focus only on what he feels is a bright present and future at his new school in Detroit.

?I don?t really look back that much. I?m glad I ended up at Wayne State,? Jackson said this week as the Warriors prepare to face Northwood in a Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference battle in Midland. ?I'm just following God?s plan for what he has in store for my life.?

Two of Jackson?s four catches this season have gone for touchdowns ? for 16 and 38 yards in last week?s win over Malone ? as he?s growing into an integral part of the Division II Warriors' offense. The 6-foot, 185-pound former track star has 64 receiving yards to go along with four punt returns for 43 yards and four kick returns for 75 yards.
