When the 2010 season rolls around, there will be schools in District 1 that will have to keep an eye out for a very talented linebacker.
Myles Jackson, a 6’4, 225-pound senior-to-be for West Chester Henderson High School, is a potential Division-1 prospect, and even though he’s not received an offer to date, he’s definitely generating some attention from major colleges.
Jackson has received interest mostly from Big East and Big 10 schools, according to his profile on Rivals.com. UCONN, Michigan State, Minnesota, Notre Dame, Penn State, Rutgers, South Carolina, Syracuse, Temple and Virginia have expressed interest in the Henderson linebacker.
The attention is warranted. Jackson’s statistical production decreased from his sophomore season (77 tackles, 4.5 sacks, 1 INT, 2 fumble recoveries). He finished his junior campaign with 49 tackles (23 solo), one sack and one fumble recovery. Jackson also caught 10 passes for 106 yards and a pair of touchdowns.
Henderson finished 6-5 last season and allowed an average of 18.5 points per game. After a 5-0 start, the Warriors finished 1-5.
