UGA safety Dan Jackson was a zero star recruit. Here's his 247 profile- Dan Jackson 247
As a walk-on he earned the nick name "Dirty Dan" on the scout team.
He found his way onto the field in 2021 due to injuries ahead of him, and he played himself into a starting role. He was on the field running lead block for Kelee Ringo in the pick six to end the National Championship.

But I applaud you sharing the story of this nice young man. Kudos
