We traveled down to Franklin (Ga.) - Heard County recently to visit running back Dontavius Jackson. Jackson has picked up some impressive offers already and one came from the Florida Gators as soon as they saw him work out in January. We were able to see Jackson show his agility, quickness, and strength too and he didn't disappoint.

Prospect: Dontavius Jackson

High School: Heard County (Franklin, Ga.)

Class: 2008

Position: Running Back

Vitals: 5-11, 196-pounds, 4.5

Offers: Clemson, Florida, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, and Ole Miss

Favorites: Open

The Skinny: Jackson is a power runner that can run between the tackles or bounce it outside. He has starred for Coach Barron on both sides of the ball, but his future will be at running back. He ran for close to 2,500-yards and 29-touchdowns as a junior.
