Donte Jackson is an American college basketball coach and current head coach for the Grambling State Tigers men's basketball team.
After a standout high school career in his hometown of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Jackson attended Milwaukee for one season. Jackson transferred to Central State where he was an all-conference and all-region selection during the 2001-2002 season, and part of the Marauders' NAIA Division I National Tournament Sweet 16 squad from the 1999-2000 season.
After his playing career, Jackson became an assistant coach at his alma mater, and was in the position for seven years before being elevated to head coach in 2010. In his four years at Central State, Jackson compiled a 60-42 record, before accepting the head coaching position at Stillman. In two seasons as a member of the SIAC, Jackson led Stillman to a 44-16 record, winning the SIAC men's basketball tournament championship in 2016 and reaching the regional semifinals of the 2016 NCAA Division II Men's Basketball Tournament. After 2016, the school dropped from NCAA Division II to NAIA. In its first year as a NAIA Independent, Jackson guided the team to a 22-5 record.
On June 28, 2017 Jackson was officially named the head coach at Grambling State.
