  • Tim Jackson - Bettendorf

    Does anyone know if we went after this kid?





    Tim Jackson, a 5-foot-10, 180-pound running back from Bettendorf, Iowa, is one of the most decorated players in Bettendorf history. As a senior, the high school all-American and two-time class 4A player of the year recorded 2,767 all-purpose yards and 41 touchdowns (26 rushing, 10 receiving, 5 returns). Jackson was named an all-state running back by The Des Moines Register and The Iowa Newspaper Association, and was listed on both offensive and defensive all-metro teams by The Quad City Times. The conference player of the year was also the MVP of the state championship team. He averaged 38 yards per kick return and 19 yards per punt return as a senior. Jackson was also a two-time Iowa soccer player of the year and member of the adidas All-America Team.
    "We're not an ordinary school," said Fort. "We have tradition. We have a good team year after year. We rebuild, and it doesn't matter who we have coming back."

    I don't remember correctly, but I want to think he was offered a walk on spot. We already had the Law kid from Newton, the kid from KC, and 2 transfer RB's coming in, so it didn't make a whole lot of sense to bring him into play at RB. I think he was being recruited as a DB, if I remember correctly from the article I read on him earlier this winter.
    The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.
