Maybe some birdies have been whispering in his ear since Butch got canned. Great offer sheet. Be great to cement some ties with Armwood. Projecte3d as a CB at UNC, but he could prolly play anywhere.

Some footage from when he was at Armwood. Wonder how much eligibility he has left?

Hometeam Johnny tweets that Jackson is indeed leaving UNC.

Mike McFarland to USF. Donte Aycock hangs it up. Mywan Jackson leaving North Carolina. It's like Tampa Bay All-Star Musical Chairs.

Jackson, Willis leaving UNC football program

By: Bill Cole

Published: August 05, 2011

Two more North Carolina football players, Mywan Jackson and Brandon Willis, have decided to leave the program, and three walk-on players have been given grants-in-aid.

Jackson is a junior cornerback and one of the most experienced players in the secondary. He has played in 18 games in his career, and he started five games last season, finishing with 20 tackles and three pass break-ups. Everett Withers, UNC's interim coach, said Jackson is leaving because of family concerns and wants to attend college nearer his home in Seffner, Fla.

"Mywan is working through some personal issues right now with his family, and he felt it was in his best interest to stay in Florida until he decides where to continue his education," Withers said in a statement.

"He indicated he would like to attend a school closer to his home, and we support his decision. I wish him nothing but the best."

Strangely similar language to this ESPN article. Hope they were both just quoting from a press release.

North Carolina junior cornerback Mywan Jackson will not return to the program and sophomore defensive tackle Brandon Willis will transfer, the school announced on Friday.

“Mywan is working through some personal issues right now with his family and he felt it was in his best interest to stay in Florida until he decides where to continue his education,†interim coach Everett Withers said in a prepared statement. “He indicated he would like to attend a school closer to his home and we support his decision. I wish him nothing but the best.â€

Jackson played in 18 games during his two seasons in Chapel Hill and made five starts in 2010. He had 20 tackles and broke up three passes a year ago.

We knew that yesterday, but we still don't really know whether USF is interested in him.
