ASSETS PER HUDL FILM:
PREFACE: MR. JACKSON IS THE BEST RB I HAVE EVER EVALUATED. HE IS LISTED RUNNING A 4.5 40, BUT IN HIS FILM HE RUNS AWAY FROM EVERYONE ELSE ON THE FIELD EASILY, SCORING WITH SUBTLE MOVES/JUKES AFTER HIS BURST THROUGH THE LOS. HE IS, IF I WERE TO RELATE HIM TO ANY PLAYER I HAVE SEEN, IT WOULD BE SEAN TUCKER. HIS EXPLOSIVE ACCELERATION GOING THROUGH THE LOS OR AROUND END IS TRULY AMAZING TO WATCH> HE MAKES SCORING TD'S LOOK EASY.
I AM GOING TO RATE HIS SPEED AT A LOW 4.4 BECAUSE THAT"S WHAT HE RUNS, IMO
ALSO, IF HE'S A FOUR STAR I WONDER WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO BE A FIVE STAR?
THE IMPORTANCE OFTHE 40 YARD DASH
It is primarily run to evaluate the speed and acceleration of American football players by coaches and scouts particularly for the NFL Draft but also for collegiate recruiting.

From South Carolina Football Rating Bo:
As a football prospect, Jackson is one of the highest-rated running backs in the class of 2025.
According to 247Sporkts, he is the 101st-ranked player in the country and the 4th highest-rated running back.
On3 has him listed as the 130th-best player in America and the 10th running back on their recruiting rankings board.
Based on Rivals' rankings, Jackson is 140th nationally and the 11th-best running back.
Bo knows running the football. Just like the man with whom he shares a name, Jackson is fast. His 40-yard dash time is listed as a 4.5, but he seems faster on film. He routinely runs away from every player on the field as no one can seem to take a good enough pursuit angle to stop him.
He's also a threat to make a play in the passing game, as well. Some of his longest plays came on wheel routes and runs-after-catch on screens and swing passes.
Jackson has good vision in the open field, but he didn't have to show much wiggle with the ball in his hands because of just how much faster he is than his opponents. His film is full of explosive plays in which he only has to put subtle moves on would-be tacklers to get away.
If he weren't so explosive on offense, he might have a future on defense. Playing a combination safety/outside linebacker/nickel corner role, he is an impact player for VASJHS. He has the athleticism and hip fluidity to cover, the downhill explosion to make plays in the backfield, and enough ability to work through traffic to get after the quarterback.
