Illinois Football: Jackson Hamilton receives offer from the Illini

Lovie Smith has done some amazing work with defensive players at every program he has led. The work he has done with just the Illini defense alone is nothing short of incredible. I believe our defensive personnel will continue getting stronger too. Adding someone like Hamilton would go a long way toward accomplishing this goal.

Hamilton is a 6-foot, 202-pound safety from Blessed Trinity Catholic High School and resides in Roswell, Georgia. He isn’t rated or ranked just yet by 247Sports, but this kid is already starting to pile up the scholarship offers. That means there are a lot of teams who see potential in him.
