DEL.ICIO.USOle Miss, Tennessee inquire about North Atlanta QB Londry-Jackson
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Interest in North Atlanta quarterback Jamal Londry-Jackson’s continues to rise.
Injured during his junior season, Londry-Jackson threw for 1,652 yards and 20 touchdowns during his senior campaign. He rushed for 276 yards and five scores.
Those numbers caught the attention of new Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin, who visited Londry-Jackson’s home earlier today.
“I was still at school, but coach Kiffin talked to my mom,” said Londry-Jackson, who received a visit from Georgia Tech assistant Buzz Preston on Monday. “He said I have a good live arm, am athletic and good at my position. But I don’t fit into their pro style of offense that they’re going to run.
“My game is out of the shotgun because we ran the spread. But he took my package and said he’d spread the word about me.”
The 6-foot-4, 185-pound Londry-Jackson also spoke with coaches from Kent State and Ole Miss today.
“We talked to [assistant] coach [Tracy] Rocker of Ole Miss tonight on the phone,” Londry-Jackson said. “He seemed interested. He said they’ll call me next week.
“They’ll let me know, yes or no, about an offer then.”
