Despite not having played a minute of real game time for the Kansas Jayhawks, big expectations are already pouring in for freshman Elmarko Jackson.
Jackson arrived in Lawrence earlier this summer as part of a once-stellar 2023 recruiting class. That class has since taken a turn following Chris Johnson and Marcus Adams Jr.’s requests to be released from their National Letters of Intent.
Still, Jackson appears to be more than enough of a consolation prize for head coach Bill Self and his staff.
The 6-foot-3 guard out of South Kent, Connecticut, was a consensus four-star, top-30 recruit coming out of high school, according to all major recruiting sites.
