One More Freddy J Quote For The Road..................

As some of you probably know, Fred Jackson's son Josh committed to Virginia Tech yesterday.  He is rated a 3 star dual threat QB by Rivals and Scouts - 4 stars by ESPN.   He had offers from Navy, Northwestern, Syracuse, Utah and WVU.   Josh will get to play under family friend and former Michigan QB and QB coach Scot Loeffler.

The Detroit News did an article on Fred's transition from RB coach at Michigan to substitute teacher at Saline.   Same of you may know that Freddy J was famous for his recruiting evaluations.   For example, he might tell a 4 star running back prospect:  You have the size of Ty Wheatley, power of Chris Perry and the elusiveness of Mike Hart.

I'm going to miss those quotes, so finding this one made me smile.   I hope it does for you:

"Everything is good," Fred Jackson said. "My kids grew up here. Josh wanted to go there when he was little, but he understood after the recruiting process started he had to do what's best for him. I did tell Jim (Harbaugh) that Josh plays a lot like he did in high school, that he can run and he can throw on the run like he did."

Good Luck to Fred and Josh at Virginia Tech!
