2023 COuntdown to IUFB Kickoff: 37 Days (Jackson Schott)
/Written by: Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle)
The 2023 edition of the Hoosier Huddle Countdown is officially underway! We are counting down from 100 to the beginning of the 2023 Indiana University football season. Each day, we will take a look at one (or two) players on the current Indiana football roster and highlight the player’s role in the upcoming season. Today’s profile features redshirt sophomore linebacker Jackson Schott.
Name: Jackson Schott
Hometown: Greenwood, IN (Center Grove)
Position: Linebacker
Year: Redshirt Sophomore
Height/Weight: 6’3”/194 pounds
Schott joined the Hoosiers as a walk-on after a couple seasons with Miami (OH). Schott is out of Center Grove High School and is one of many players at IU from that program. He did not appear in any games for the Hoosiers last season but made his mark on the scout team.
Schott is a good athlete who also ran track in high school. His length helps in coverage and 2023 could be the year he finds his way on to the playing field on special teams.
The Hoosier Huddle Countdown to Kickoff rolls on with Day 36 tomorrow!
