New Mexico forward grad transfer Vance Jackson will be finishing his career at Arkansas under the tutelage of a familiar face in Coach Eric Musselman.
Jackson, 6-9, 225 pounds, picked Arkansas over interest from Louisville, Arizona State, Ole Miss, Virginia Tech, Rutgers, Washington State and others.
“I was very familiar with Coach Musselman and his whole staff,” Jackson said. “They recruited me at Nevada when I transferred from UConn, so I’m already familiar and comfortable with the relationship we have and I didn't see a reason to delay.”
He averaged 11.1 points and 5.2 rebounds for the Lobos last season and 6.
