Noah Jackson Commits to Texas Tech Red Raiders
Jesuit Crusaders linebacker Noah Jackson, a Class of 2025 standout, has committed to Texas Tech University. The 6-foot-2, 220-pound Jackson chose the Red Raiders over other Power Five offers, citing the team's 3-4 defensive scheme as a key factor in his decision. With the departure of several linebackers from last season's roster, Jackson sees an opportunity to contribute immediately. Additionally, he is drawn to Texas Tech's academic programs, particularly the university's strong business and engineering departments. Jackson had previously committed to Oregon State in August 2024 but decommitted in February 2026, opting to re-evaluate his options. He is expected to be a key addition to the Red Raiders' defense this fall, bringing his speed, agility, and tackling ability to the field.
