Jackman is a Virginia Tech commit, he is 6-0 with an athletic frame that has strength in the lower half and projection left to it. Throws from a three-quarters arm slot, short loose very quick arm action with easier effort to it. Drop and drive delivery, shoulders are uphill and closed, lands open with a fall off finish. Fastball was 85-88 with some riding action and a bit late armside run to it. Curveball was 67-73, showed ability to vary shape and velocity on his breaking ball, at its best, hard sharp power 11/5 break and the pitch is swing and miss already.

Athletic high waisted frame standing 6-foot, 165-pounds. Athletic mover on the mound. Nice pace to the delivery and shows some repeatable mechanics throughout. Average arm circle with arm speed getting through from high three-quarter slot. Fastball played well to the glove side, sitting 84-85 mph. Breaking ball had 11/5 shape and depth at 72-74 mph. Displayed arm speed and above average feel for the pitch. Capable defender at third base and offers two-way potential with the athleticism to play multiple positions.
