Vance Jackson

Former Program: UConn Huskies

Eligibility: Eligible in 2018-2019

Vance Jackson had a good, but not great year as one of UConn’s better freshmen. He has the pedigree a lot of major schools involved in his transfer recruiting process.

Jackson has great size for his age at 6’8″, 229-pounds. He was a solid contributor for the Huskies with 8.1 points and 3.8 rebounds. Jackson did most of his work behind the arc with 150 of his 258 points coming on threes. His next school will love the sniping potential he showed shooting 40% as a freshman.

The LA native chose Connecticut over Arizona, Cal, and USC, so one of those former suitors could make a play for their old target.
