    Before the season last year former Gator DL Steven Harris was commenting on what he saw in practices when Jackson was 4th string, and he said we would be seeing Jackson in the NFL for a while. I liked what I saw then, but he is getting better every time I see him. I think he is similar in style to but better than Etienne was for us with better speed and power and blocking. Most teams in the SEC have, but we definitely have, a great rb room.
