Steve Sarkisian had previously said that Jackson would play the first 11 practices of camp on defense exclusively before trying his hand at offense beginning Wednesday.
When he finally did get on the field in the cardinal jersey of the offense, he was a sight to behold, according to every beat writer and reporter who witnessed practice.
Just how effusive was the praise? Take a look:
Adoree' Jackson moved to WR today for #USC and absolutely put on a show. Multiple TDs. Best player on the field.

.@AdoreeKnows touchdowns. Five in his first practice on offense, after being on D the past 11 days for #USC. Incredible.

Huge day for Adoree Jackson on offense. Easily the best guy out there. Dominating performance. #USC

Let's just start with Adoree' Jackson was ridiculous today. Quite possibly the best practice I've ever seen a player have.

Didn't take Adoree' Jackson long to get involved on offense. First passing play of first team session goes for 30+ and possible TD on post.

On the third play of the scrimmage portion of practice, Cody Kessler threw over the middle to Adoree' Jackson for a TD. #USC

You could argue that but you forgot special teams as well. https://t.co/wzJO9ZjQTB

Adoree' Jackson is ridiculously good on offense. It's hard to articulate because he's just that good. #USC

#USC receivers coach Tee Martin says what separates Adoree' Jackson from others is his intelligence... Not to mention athletic ability.

Sark on Adoree' Jackson: "I felt like every time he touched the ball, he might have scored and that's how it should be."

Adoree said he was having "a lot of fun" playing on offense today. He scored around 5 TDs so I can see why. He played slot, WR and RB.
