Breaking News: Tyreese Jackson, Son of a Legend, Flips Commitment to Ohio State After Cancelling $10.5 Million Deal from Colorado State….
In a shocking turn of events, five-star quarterback Tyreese Jackson has flipped his commitment to Ohio State after previously agreeing to a record-breaking $10.5 million NIL deal with Colorado State. The son of NFL legend Donovan Jackson, Tyreese was considered a program-changing recruit for CSU. However, after last-minute discussions with Buckeyes’ head coach Ryan Day, Jackson decided to follow a more traditional powerhouse path.
Sources close to Jackson say the decision was based on long-term development and NFL aspirations rather than immediate financial gain. His move deals a major blow to Colorado State, which had hoped to use the historic NIL package to elevate its national standing. Meanwhile, Ohio State further solidifies its quarterback depth, setting up intense future battles for the starting job.
Jackson’s flip highlights the unpredictable nature of modern recruiting, where NIL deals, tradition, and coaching influence all play a role. Colorado State now faces a difficult task in replacing its would-be franchise star, while Ohio State celebrates landing one of the most sought-after players in the 2025 class.
