Former Dogs RB Ealey transferring to Jacksonville State

JACKSONVILLE, Ala. -- Former Georgia running back Washaun Ealey and ex-Mississippi linebacker Clarence Jackson have transferred to Jacksonville State following their dismissals from the Southeastern Conference schools.<br /> <br /> Gamecocks coach Jack Crowe said Thursday both players have enrolled in classes at the FCS school. They are eligible to play this season and have two years remaining.<br /> <br /> "We expect both of them to come in and make an immediate impact on our team," Crowe said.<br /> <br /> Ealey led the Bulldogs in rushing the past two seasons, gaining 1,528 yards and 14 touchdowns while starting nine games. He set a school record when he ran for five TDs in a win over Kentucky. Georgia coach Mark Richt granted Ealey his conditional release in May after twice suspending him.<br /> <br /> The back was suspended for the 2010 season opener after his arrest for driving with a suspended license and leaving the scene of an accident. He was barred from offseason activities in February after reportedly failing to show up for disciplinary running.<br /> <br /> That suspension was lifted after three weeks.<br /> <br /> Jackson played in four games as a sophomore for the Rebels, seeing his first action in Jacksonville State's double-overtime upset.<br /> <br /> He was listed as a starting linebacker after spring practice but Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt dismissed him from the team after he was charged with public drunkenness in May.<br /> <br /> Jackson was also arrested last fall after allegedly stealing a television and other electronic equipment from a building on campus. He played in four games as a true freshman, but was suspended for the rest of the season after the incident.
