No disrespect to TJ, but I think Jackson would have better options than SDSU if he requested his release. Hopefully secure his final commitment next weekend.
Doubt it, but probably using it to open up his options. I don't think he saw Monte coming back, but who knows. Just my opinion.
I doubt he'd follow TJ. He would be a hot commodity if Prohm let him out of his LOI.
I think the visit is a good sign. Not many recruits leave campus with a negative feeling about the program. The entire weekend will be about him, and I'm sure spending a bunch of time with Monte, Naz and Co. won't hurt.
Little puzzling, considering he has been on campus and to games multiple times. 'Jackson may want to talk to the staff face to face to get a clear picture of the situation.
He may de-commit, but I doubt he'll follow TJ to SDSU. His talent will give him BCS program options and I would expect him to explore those if he actually requests and granted his release.
I see that as excellent news. I really trust the staff and I think he'll love the character of the guys he'll be playing with.
He's already signed. Seems a little bit late to be changing your mind regardless of the situation.

Iowa State JUCO PG signee Donovan Jackson tells me he'll take an official visit to Iowa State next week from Thursday to Saturday.

Jackson hasn't come to a final conclusion yet on his recruitment but hadn't previously done an official visit, so he'll do that now.

Also, Steve Prohm recently stopped in to visit Jackson. He's been in pretty frequent contact.
These tweets are all from today.

no specfic school with mutual interest from both parties, hope we hang onto him!
It kind of does. Other schools can't talk to him. He would have to be released from his LOI. And he'd be screwing us over deciding this late to change his mind.
Given his recent uncertainty, I think the visit is good news. It will give him three days on campus to talk with coaches and players and have a good time in Ames. If he decides to go elsewhere, so be it. His situation has certainly changed since he originally committed, and it would be hard to fault him for opening things up. No inside info, but I'm confident he will be in an ISU jersey next season.
He was injured and missed 2 months of the season, Monte stayed, Naz is back, Matt made huge strides...I don't think any one of those things would impact him but all together, it will impact DJ.
Everything I am hearing in the background paints a positive pictures that Jackson will still end up at Iowa State. Potential that he could RS though because of the wrist/playing time.
