Former Four-Star Georgia Tech commit C.J. Jackson commits to LSU

Jackson is a four-star player in the 2024 class

Last week, four-star edge player C.J. Jackson decommitted from Georgia Tech and reopened his recruitment. After a weekend visit to Baton Rouge to watch LSU demolish Auburn, Jackson committed to LSU and joined their top 10 recruiting class. 

Jackson is a four-star edge player according to the 247Sports Composite and is ranked the 194th best player in the country according to the Composite. On3 Sports has Jackson as a top 65 player in the country. He plays at Tucker High School in Georgia. 

This was a big win for Brent Key and his staff when Jackson committed back in June. It is now a big loss for the Yellow Jackets, as I think Jackson is a future star pass rusher and overall solid defender.

He held big-time offers from schools such as Alabama, LSU, Florida, Auburn, Clemson, Georgia, South Carolina, Texas A&M, and Tennessee, among others. 

Georgia Tech's 2024 class currently ranks 30th on 247Sports.
