Villa Angela-St. Joseph High School running back Bo Jackson is one of the top backs in the cycle and has most of the usual powers at the running back position recruiting him. He ranks as the No. 101 prospect in the 2025 class, according to the 247Sports' Composite Rankings, and tallied 1,700 all-purpose yards and 28 touchdowns during his junior season.

Jackson confirmed ten unofficial visits for this spring with 247Sports' Steve Wiltfong. He will see the Vols on April 12, his first time in Knoxville, Tennessee. Georgia, Kentucky, and Ohio State have all held buzz in this recruitment. While Tennessee already has a commitment from Buford High School running back Justin Baker in the 2025 class, the coaching staff hasn't ruled out taking another from the high school ranks.

Bo Jackson's Spring Visit Schedule

  • Florida: March 7
  • Clemson: March 11
  • Pittsburgh: March 21
  • Syracuse: March 27
  • Indiana: April 2
  • Ohio State: April 9
  • Tennessee: April 12
  • Florida State: April 16
  • Texas: April 18
  • Oregon: April 25

New Tennessee running backs coach De'Rail Sims will begin building connections with these 2025 backs over the next few months, and Jackson is certainly one of the names at the top of his list.
