Stanley Jackson, who played quarterback at Ohio State from 1994-97, will be recommended as Westerville North High School's football coach.
Westerville North agrees, putting Jackson on the verge of his first head-coaching assignment at the high school level.
Greg Viebranz, executive director of communications and family engagement for Westerville City Schools, confirmed Thursday that North athletic director Wes Elifritz will be recommending Jackson to Superintendent John Kellogg as the school’s new football coach.Jackson, who played for the Buckeyes from 1994-97, met with players in the North program Thursday.
In 2020, Johnson led the Warriors to a 6-4 record for their first winning season since 2004. He was named Division I state Coach of the Year.“The night he told me he was going to apply for the job, I was shocked,” Ronald said. “He’s been my coach my whole life. I know it’s going to be nothing new. He’s going to be himself. He’s always been tough on me.”
Jackson’s oldest son, Stanley Jr., is a senior running back and linebacker and his youngest son, Tre’, is a seventh-grader at Heritage Middle School. At 5-foot-11 and 220 pounds, Tre’ is expected to contribute at the high school level beginning in 2024. “I’m very hard on my boys at the youth level because I’m just trying to get them to understand certain principles, work ethic, playing hard and pushing yourself,” Stanley Sr. said. “I push really hard, but as you get to high school it’s different. Now it’s your career. This is more about motivating and educating.”
