FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) Former New Mexico player Vance Jackson has chosen to attend Arkansas as a graduate transfer.
Arkansas made the announcement Wednesday in a news release.
Jackson, a 6-foot-9, 230-pound forward, started his college career by playing a season at Connecticut before playing two seasons at New Mexico. He averages 10.8 points per game for his career.
As a freshman at UConn, he started 21 games and was named to the American Athletic Conference All-Rookie Team.
He sat out the next year because of transfer rules. In his first season at New Mexico, Jackson averaged 13.1 points and 7.0 rebounds per contest. He was named to the 2019 Mountain West All-Tournament team after averaging 25.5 points per game.
Last season, he averaged 11.1 points and 5.3 rebounds per game for New Mexico. In a two-game stretch, Jackson had 25 points and 13 rebounds against San Jose State and had 29 points and 13 rebounds against Fresno State.
