EnrolledAs a College Recruit
Has the best combination of size and long speed among the cornerbacks in the 2022 cycle. Tied the California state record in the 100 meters as a junior, running a posting 10.25 second mark in the state finals at 6-foot-1, 180 pounds. A technically-sound, smooth mover who has been well-coached at one of the nation’s top high school programs. Is battle-tested against top wide receivers playing against nationally-ranked high school teams on a regular basis. Has considerable make-up speed to close the gap when he is out of phase. As a defense-only player, he’s still a work in progress when it comes to instincts and ball-tracking skills. Missed the majority of his senior season after tearing his ACL in Mater Dei's first game.
Domani Jackson‘s size and athletic profile are similar to that of Tyson Campbell, a Five-Star Plus+ prospect in the 2018 cycle. Both Jackson and Campbell were prep track stars. Jackson tied the California state record in the 100 meters as a junior with a time of 10.25 seconds. Campbell ran a 10.39 in high school. They also have similar size and length at around 6-foot-1, 180 pounds. And while both have elite speed and good size, there’s room for improvement in the tracking and ball skills areas.

Domani Jackson sustains season-ending knee injury in season opener
Five-star cornerback Domani Jackson sustained a season-ending knee injury in the opening game of his senior season on Saturday. The6-foot-1, 180-pounder had a high-level pick six in a showcase game against Texas power Duncanville prior to the injury. Jackson ends his Mater Dei career with 26 games played over four seasons - the total is much lower due to his injury and the shortened 2021 spring season, due to COVID-19.

Domani Jackson Debuts as 5-star
Domani Jackson brings elite speed with well above average size. He won a state title for Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei in the 100 meters this spring by running a blistering 10.25-second mark. That time tied the California state record. Jackson is a fluid mover and is able to erase separation with makeup speed. He plays with good technique but will need to continue improving his tracking and ball skills to reach his high ceiling.
