Gainer, Rucker Give Clarity To Chizik's Jack Position
Posted May 28, 2023

A year ago, a common question by the media and fans focused on what actually is the jack position. What does a jack do? It was sort of an offshoot of the hybrid defensive end/outside linebacker spot in Jay Bateman’s UNC defense.
