DALLAS – Lucky Jackson signed with Western Kentucky at a time when wide receivers were churning out highlights and breaking records.

Production at that position took a setback just as the program did overall during the middle of Jackson’s career, so never once did the Lexington native think he’d ever join those receivers he once looked up to in the record books.

“It’s way over my head,” Jackson told the Daily News after WKU’s bowl practice on Saturday.
