Jackson Keith, the four-star 6-foot-7 wing from Durham (NC) Southern, committed to Butler on Saturday, giving the Bulldogs the No. 2-ranked recruiting class in 2025, per 247Sports.com
He also considered VCU, Tennessee, UCF and East Carolina.
“I chose Butler because when they first saw me play two years ago, they believed in my abilities,” he told On3.com. “That belief never faded, in fact…. it only strengthened. They identified my strengths and weaknesses, and they know that I am the type of player who is willing to work to improve every aspect of my game. Coach [Thad] Matta believes that I can contribute to winning games from day one.”
He added:
“The entire staff was amazing! The visit was great. Everyone we met was genuine and committed to making Butler basketball the best in every aspect, including academically. My parents loved it. Coach Matta and the entire Butler staff want me to reach my ceiling and in the process, be a part of a great tradition of basketball.”
He joins four-star point guard Azavier Robinson and four-star small forward Jack McCaffery in Butler’s class.
