Vance Jackson to transfer to play bonus season

Vance Jackson’s college basketball career will continue, but not at Arkansas.

Jackson, who signed with the Razorbacks last spring and played in 26 games during the 2020-21 season, is entering the transfer portal, he announced Tuesday. He will take advantage of the extra year of eligibility provided by the NCAA because of covid-19.

“After talking to my family I have decided to use my extra year and enter the transfer portal to complete my masters as well (as) pursue my dream,” Jackson wrote.

Jackson, a Pasadena, Calif., native, began his college career at UConn before transferring to New Mexico, where he played two seasons.
