The recruiting process can be overwhelming for young prospects and their families, but some have the benefit of previous experience. In the case of Lance Jackson, he saw his older brother Landon Jackson go through the process up close.
That experience led to Jackson committing to Texas on Sunday afternoon. The Top247 defensive lineman from Texarkana (Texas) Pleasant Grove watched his brother closely throughout his own recruitment and he met several key figures in the football world. One of those figures was Texas defensive coordinator Pete Kwiatkowski.
Though the Longhorns were never highly in the mix for Landon, Washington was a school that caught his eye. A big reason for that was his relationship with Kwiatkowski. During an interview in November, Jackson told 247Sports about his link to PK.
