Florida State is certainly looking into the future with one of its latest scholarship offers. They have extended one to defensive lineman J'deion Jackson, and the unranked prospect took to social media to announce it.
"Blessed to receive an offer from Florida State University!! #gonoles," said Jackson.
The recruitment of Jackson has taken off in a major way as of late. Alabama, Auburn, Tennessee, Colorado, UCLA, Nebraska, and others have all offered him in 2026. Miami and LSU are also on his list, as they both offered last summer.
Although Jackson is being recruited as a defensive lineman, he's made plays on the offensive side of the ball as well at The First Academy in Orlando, Florida. He put 86 rushing yards on 10 carries, and he gained 120 receiving yards on seven receptions and one touchdown, lining up at tight end.
The 6-foot-4, 310-pounder is the latest of several prospects from the 2029 class that FSU has offered lately. Offensive lineman Atreyu Creantor, wide receiver Colton Laisure, and athlete Anthony White III, who is the son of Florida State's defensive coordinator Tony White.
