Jimmy Jaggers recently landed his latest offer from Arizona State but the 2017 tight end is still taking his time with the recruiting process.

Things have picked up drastically for the Roseville, Calif., standout and so he's in no rush to name any favorites this early.
"That was actually from a helpful connection," Jaggers said of his ASU offer. "My dad's buddy played there and he got my stuff in there and coach (Chip) Long I called him up and he was able to extend the offer.
"I'm definitely open-minded. I'm just letting everything come in, go see what I can and perform and get better every day and start narrowing things down later on."
So far, the 6-foot-4, 230-pound tight end has landed offers from Arizona State, Colorado, Louisville, Michigan, Northwestern, Oregon State, Utah, Washington and Washington State.
Jaggers said Auburn and BYU have preliminarily reached out and he's hoping those two programs get involved next in his recruitment.
"Just some camp invites and they like what they see on film," Jaggers said. "Hopefully, it goes further than that."
Last weekend after the B2G Elite Camp, Jaggers visited USC. This week he was expected to stop by Stanford and in the next week or so the 2017 prospect will work out at UCLA.
An offer from any of those three Pac-12 powers would be big especially Stanford since it's so close to home.
"Stanford is huge alone with all their prestige," Jaggers said. "Especially with it being in Northern California, that is really nice."
