Florida-bred junior college WR Calvin Jackson Jr. commits to WSU Cougars

Washington State picked up the pledged of another Florida skill player Wednesday afternoon when Calvin Jackson Jr., a Pompano Beach, Fla. native, committed to the Cougars via a Twitter announcement.

Jackson (5-foot-10, 170 pounds) originally signed with Toledo in February 2016 out of Coral Springs Charter School, where he was recruited by new WSU inside receivers coach Derek Sage, who was an assistant at Toledo at the time.

But Jackson never enrolled at Toledo and ended up having to go the junior college route. He played at Independence (Kans.) Community College last season, where he appeared in nine games and finished with 649 receiving yards and five touchdowns.
