Oregon State Gets Commitment From Program Legend Steven Jackson's Son | Danny & Dusty

this popped up the other day and I I thought it was really good we haven't had a a time to wedge this one in here but great news for the beaves heading into the start of the season right oh Skyler Jackson committed to Oregon State this week who's he he is the son of Stephen Jackson uh legendary running back for the Oregon State Beavers and probably I I mean Stephen Jackson and what he did in St Louis was absolutely Bonkers I mean just was it eight consecutive thousand yard seasons that Stephen Jackson had as a member of of the Rams absolutely nuts and Skyler Jackson is it doesn't come in as a five-star running back or a four-star he's a he's a three star running back he's a 14th rated Prospect out of the state of Nevada this year but I look at when you have a program in such flux as Oregon state is where there's so much unknown when you are able to bring back those Legacy guys MH and you hold on to those Legacy guys and that says a lot about the connection that the beaves have made with their alumni and their most notable alumni and that staying power right of it still means a whole hell of a lot to the guys that played there that you know Skyler Jackson isn't jumping at the offer that he had from you know the other Pack 2 School Washington State or you know trying to maybe stay in in state and go to UNLV which is on on the upand cominging he is not this highly touted heralded recruit but keeping those guys is so important for a program especially when you're in a transition period right yeah I mean you look at on a on a completely different level where you know Alex molden was a legacy guy for the Oregon Ducks and when Elijah molden came out of wesland high school everybody's like oh yeah he's going to go to Oregon he's going to go to Oregon but it was the stability of Chris Peterson it was the program up at Washington the trajectory of where things were going you know there was there was some flux in what was happening in Eugene and one of those Legacy guys you know his kid went to a rival right oops you know and it worked out great for Elijah molden Oregon obviously is still in a really damn good place where they're at right now and they they were able to you know sturdy the ship and in through the some Rough Waters but the fact of the matter was that that was an instate guy that was really good a legacy guy and for Oregon State when your program is in flux right now to hold on to those Legacy guys it's huge for your program even though he's not like a highly touted recruit like an Elijah molden was no still a guy that heading into a senior year probably going get a lot of flash he's got a sturdy he's 6125 well here's the thing is bronny James the best basketball player we've ever heard of no how much Focus did he get way too much and that's the thing is like when you when you are a legacy whether it's in basketball football whatever it is if you're remotely good it's it's good for it's it's good for everyone in the sense it's its additional coverage it's like oh it's this uh Harvest your own land Oregon uh Achilles Smith Jr yeah like right is is he I've seen recruiting Services rate him very highly and I've seen some other services are like he's more bronny James in the sense of like he probably there's been I think a few have given him some five stars and I'm like maybe let's stop that little train a little bit but that's part of like being the Legacy yeah is you do get that bump and you know that's good for it's good for the program good for the prog good for the player it's good for it's good for everyone so being able to keep those guys the one that immedately came to mind is Frank Gore his kid went to Southern Miss like how the hell does Frank Gore Jr go to Southern Miss yeah like it's like what the like well a lot of it is like they're not their dad right sure but like but also you can develop into something you got the genetics what I mean like he just got cut by The Eagles but I mean like you know yeah it's it always like it's the Nate burlson the second right now is at Nevada it's like pretty crazy to see that huh that's weird but it when you when you see the legacies go somewhere else now uh uh what's the mcaffrey the youngest one that just got drafted Luke yeah out of rice rice he's the run to the litter we get still in the NFL but but we get jeans you know what I mean like yeah rice also really good school really good school like it's not Stanford but still a very very very good school yeah that one you kind of understand you know what I mean like that was like ah well it's a little bit of difference there but with we're talking about with Jackson he's how big uh 6125 going into a senior year yeah yeah he'll be fine he'll be okay got good little frame on him he's not Brandon Jacobs but you know yeah who is yeah who who who is 3 238b High School running back on coke that story is still I don't think that got enough traction as it should have I think the Olympics kind of overshadowed 338 yards and five touchdowns and all because he was walking through the gym and the guy who played there the year before is like hey man you want to try that white girl he's like okay few few bumps before you turn a few kids into some bumps whoa I'll be right back I got to take one more quick dump yeah he was he was sprinting to the endzone not because he wanted to score because he had a crap um there's another molden too Josiah molden at wesland good God I'm proliferating everywhere he is a monster monster corner too uh for Anthony Newman who you will hear on the pregame show coming up on Saturday uh right here on the fan um he he came picked up his media credential today I said how the lines looking Q he said we going to be good yeah yeah uh you got a really good program up there wesland High School good job
