Keith Jackson brings size, rebound upside, and developmental wing depth to Xavier
Keith Jackson is a high-upside **forward/wing** whose freshman season at Butler showed flashes of a useful role player: in the 2025-26 season, he played 26 games, averaged **2.0 points** and **1.7 rebounds** in **8.6 minutes** per game, shot **44%** from the field, and earned more run late in the year. He also arrives with real pedigree — a consensus four-star recruit, NC Basketball Coaches Association first-team all-state selection, and a 2025 North Carolina 3A state champion — suggesting he can fit a team that wants size, energy, and long-term development rather than instant offense.
