Indiana extends offer to 2026 wing Sammy Jackson, sets June visit

Indiana basketball extended a scholarship offer to class of 2026 wing Sammy Jackson on Friday, becoming the latest high-major program to enter the recruitment of the rising prospect out of Philadelphia.
The 6-foot-7, 185-pound Jackson plays his high school ball at Roman Catholic and suits up for Team Final on the Nike EYBL circuit. A skilled and versatile wing, Jackson has drawn attention nationally with his ability to score, rebound and facilitate.
Jackson is currently rated a three-star recruit, with the On3 Industry Ranking slotting him No. 134 overall in the 2026 class. Jackson is widely viewed as a candidate to climb in the rankings during the summer evaluation period.
As a junior, Jackson helped lead Roman Catholic to the PIAA 6A state championship game. He averaged 13.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.2 steals per game, while knocking down 51 three-pointers and earning second-team All-State honors in Pennsylvania’s largest classification.
On the Nike EYBL circuit, Jackson has continued to showcase his well-rounded game. In the league’s first session this spring, he averaged 13 points, 4.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.3 steals per game for Team Final.
