Florida Lands Four-Star Offensive Tackle Kennedee Jackson: Building a Strong Offensive Line Recruiting Class
Florida has secured a commitment from four-star offensive tackle Kennedee Jackson from Lithonia, Georgia. The 6’6, 300-pound prospect chose the Gators over several other schools, including LSU, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Georgia, and Auburn. Jackson was impressed by the energy at Florida during his official visit, leading him to commit earlier than planned. He is ranked as the No. 139 overall prospect and No. 14 offensive tackle in the 2027 class by Rivals.
Jackson's commitment adds to Florida's strong offensive line recruiting class, which already includes commitments from top prospects like Maxwell Hiller, Elijah Hutcheson, and Peyton Miller. With Jackson on board, the Gators' offensive line coach Phil Trautwein is assembling one of the top classes in the country in his first recruiting cycle under new head coach Jon Sumrall. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
