Jackson reclassified a year to come early to Stanford. Given that he could have been a senior in high school, it makes sense to let him sit for a year.

I agree it would generally make sense. If Jackson were backing up the backup to a (let's say) KJ Costello I wouldn't change my mental classification much. But not playing for a 3-8 team with an uncertain QB position should be (IMO) a modest downgrade.
