"We really like the fact that Theo brings us some athleticism that we lose in Alvis (Dowiels)," said Rocky head coach Bill Dreikosen. "We're losing an exceptional athlete for our level and in the Frontier (Conference) in Alvis. Theo is the type of kid that I think can come in and really make some plays out there."

"He's a good athlete that can rebound the ball. It's going to be a good mix with Devin (Uskoski). Devin is obviously a good rebounder and we've led the Frontier Conference in rebounding for three straight years. That's something we feel has helped us be successful."

Jackson joins James Bulluck (Regis University), Dwayne Johnson (Allan Hancock College) and Kale Eike (Miles Community College) as recent transfers to Rocky.
