His testing numbers
Testing numbers
none yetNo testing numbers for Jason yet. His family can add his 40, shuttle, jumps, bench and track times below, with proof.
How we know each number. Verified: a testing company or state meet result we matched to his name, class and date. Coach-confirmed: his coach said yes from a school email. Video-evidenced: a clip of the timer or tape that we watched. Self-reported, in grey: his family's word. We never scrape recruiting or stats sites; every number here was sent by his family.

His best-fitting offers first; pick any 4 of Jason's 20 to compare. Green is the best in each row. Room counts the players at his spot with two or more years left. Players like him: up to five past recruits whose offer boards looked most like his and who signed at that school, from classes whose careers are over; a real season means 100+ passes, 50+ carries, 15+ catches, 25+ tackles, 3+ sacks or 2+ interceptions. History, not a forecast for him. Green on the scheme row: it plays the front or the offense his role fits. How fit is made.

Who needs him
None of his 20 offers is from a program on the need map yet (the power conferences and Notre Dame).
A starter is six or more games in one of the position's starting slots, 2022-2026 (college snap counts are not public). How it is made. Room is players with 2+ years left plus 2027 commits, against the 68 programs mapped (the power conferences and Notre Dame). How it is made.
