Moving to Pittsburgh Jackson has committed to Pittsburgh for the 2025-26 season, Joe Tipton of On3.com reports.
Impact Jackson spent just one season with Iowa State, but he was a regular starter, featuring in the first unit in all but two of his 35 appearances and averaging 8.5 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per contest. He should be a regular starter for a Pittsburgh team that needs a boost in the frontcourt as well.

Leaving Iowa St. Jackson has decided to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal, VerbalCommits.com reports.
Impact Jackson will leave Iowa State after spending one season with them. The 6-foot-11 center averaged 8.5 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.1 blocks on 18.7 minutes across 35 appearances (33 starts).

Pulls down 15 boards Jackson posted 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 FT), 15 rebounds, one assist and one block in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 76-56 win over Cincinnati.
Impact Jackson put forth a huge effort cleaning the glass, hauling in a season-high 15 rebounds as he collected his second double-double of the season. The senior big man has teamed with Joshua Jackson this season to provide muscle underneath for the otherwise guard-heavy Cyclones. He's averaging 8.4 points, 5.1 boards and 1.1 blocks per game, numbers that have risen to 10.5 points, 9.5 rebounds and 1.0 steals over the last two games. Continued performances like what we saw on Wednesday would be a significant aid to Iowa State in their quest to win the Big 12 tournament for the second-consecutive season.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE
Eight boards in defeat Jackson had four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and three blocks across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 74-68 loss to Oklahoma State.
Impact Jackson's offensive role remains limited, but Tuesday's rebounding total was his second-best total of the month, and he also recorded three blocks -- the fourth time this season with three or more rejections in a game. He remains the primary big man for an Iowa State team looking for a high seed in the upcoming NCAA Tournament.

Milan Momcilovic and Dishon Jackson score 13 points each in No. 8 Cyclones' 79-65 win over Colorado
Milan Momcilovic and Dishon Jackson scored 13 points each as No. 8 Iowa State beat Colorado 79-65 for the Cyclones’ third victory of the season against the BuffaloesFEBRUARY 19 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Records first double-double Jackson racked up 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-4 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals in 28 minutes during Monday's 86-75 OT loss to Arizona.
Impact It was the first double-double of the season for Jackson, assisted by the extra OT period, but it came in a losing effort for the Cyclones (though it was just their second conference loss). It was a bit of a bounce-back effort for Jackson, who was averaging 5.0 points and 3.3 rebounds across the previous three games going into Monday.
JANUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE
Matches season high off bench Jackson closed Wednesday's 74-57 victory over Kansas with 17 points (4-9 FG, 9-11 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block in 20 minutes.
Impact Jackson was moved to the bench for the first time this season and subsequently responded by matching a season high with 17 points and topping his average by playing 20 minutes. The senior center had posted just 13 points total across his previous three games. For the season, Jackson is shooting 61.9-percent from the floor, averaging 9.9 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.2 blocks across 17.9 minutes per contest.
JANUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE
Out of starting five Jackson will come off the bench for the first time this season against Kansas, Jordan Guskey of The Topeka Capital-Journal reports.
Impact Jackson had started every game for the Cyclones prior, but Iowa State has shaken up their lineup with Milan Momcilovic unavailable. Jackson, who averages 9.5 points and 5.1 rebounds, should still see plenty of time against the Jayhawks.
JANUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE
Scores season-best 17 Jackson had 17 points (4-4 FG, 9-11 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two steals in 21 minutes during Sunday's 100-58 win over Jackson State.
Impact Jackson has now scored in double figures in five consecutive contests despite not seeing greater than 21 minutes in any of them. In fact, he hasn't seen more playing time than that in a single game all season despite starting every contest for the Cyclones, but this type of per-minute production makes him plenty viable from a fantasy standpoint.
DECEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Providing inside presence Jackson supplied 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block in 19 minutes during Monday's 82-56 win over Kansas City.
Impact Jackson started his second-consecutive game, seeing 19 minutes on the floor while contributing 13 points and six boards. The senior transfer from Charlotte was brought to provide an inside presence to compliment Iowa State's strong guard play. His minutes have been limited to under 20 through two generally uncompetitive games but don't be surprised if he sees minutes in the 25-30 range once the schedule begins to strengthen.

Commits to Iowa State Jackson committed to Iowa State on Monday, per Joe Tipton of On3.com.
Impact Jackson mulled offers from Indiana, Miami, USC and Xavier. But, it is Iowa State that makes him feel he would succeed most. Jackson's selection comes amid a 2023-24 season during which ISU was the only elite interested in him to advance into March Madness. Also, the Cyclones have potential for a limited turnover that affects Jackson, considering their only players soon out of collegiate eligibility are all big men. He can seamlessly fit into a primary role left by at least one of the future vacancies. Having averaged 11.4 points (on 54.4 field goal and 72.0 free throw percentages) and 6.1 rebounds while enrolled at UNC-Charlotte, Jackson has the upside to be an excellent option down low and a quality rebounder yet again next season but for Iowa State.

Enters portal Jackson will enter the NCAA Transfer Portal after one year with UNC-Charlotte, Derek Murray of TheScoutingService reports.
Impact Jackson averaged 11.4 points and 6.1 rebounds on 26.4 minutes per game this past season in his sole year with UNC-Charlotte after being with Washington State for two years. The sophomore center will look for a new suitor and likely a bigger school in which he can showcase his abilities in the paint with.
