Fab 55 member Landon Jackson picks LSU over Texas, Texas A&M
Posted April 26th, 2020
The combination of success on the field following a national championship and success in the NFL draft with 14 players selected was enough for LSU to beat out the top programs in the country for four-star defensive end Landon Jackson. The 6-6, 240-pound edge rusher was a top target of the Longhorns and Texas A&M. He’s a two-time Class 4A Division II state champion at Texarkana Pleasant Grove.

Jackson is the fourth-ranked member of the 2021 Fabulous 55. He arrived on the recruiting scene as a freshman, recording more than 10 sacks and raising eyebrows with a Defensive MVP performance in the state title game. He suffered a leg injury as a sophomore, but returned to his successful ways as a junior with Pleasant Grove capping the season with its second title in three years.
