According to the On3 Consensus Rankings for the 2020 cycle, Jackson was the No. 61 overall prospect in America and a four-star recruit. He played a little less than two seasons at Michigan and averaged 1.5 points per game in 20 contests for the Wolverines.
The Wolverines have their own guard ranks to sort out. Both Eli Brooks and DeVante’ Jones depart via graduation thie year. This leaves sophomore Frankie Collins and true freshman Dug McDaniel as the only point guards on the roster. Michigan projects to be active in the transfer portal again as roster attrition sorts itself out.

Michigan quote of the day
“If there’s one dude who’s in the film room with me every single time, it’s Davis [Warren]. He was with me during every game week, last season. I had a prior relationship with him before he came to Michigan. But I think he’s very smart. It’s been three years, and I think he played well today. I’m proud of him. That’s my guy. I look forward to what he can do.”
