Lafayette High School junior-to-be Jackson Davis is one of the state’s top players in the Class of 2014 and is drawing major college attention.And while he’s drawing the attention, he’s improving and maturing.

Davis is 6-foot-8 and said he’s up to 220 pounds – close to 30 pounds heavier than he was last spring – heading into the summer evaluation period.

“I’ve been doing a lot of individual work and a lot of lifting,” Davis said in a recent interview. “I’m working a lot on flexibility also. It gives me a lot more confidence when I go inside now that I’m bigger and stronger.

“I still need to keep working hard.”

Davis’ father, Johnathon Davis, said the phone “has been ringing” for his son. The family has talked to Virginia a lot, along with Notre Dame. Other schools that have been in contact include, Purdue, Butler, Miami, Minnesota and Florida State.

I think it's only a matter of time before this kid explodes nationally.

 

He has a lot of potential and size to go with it.
