Jackson came in as a corner just like Berry. Berry mentioned several times that JJ is light years ahead of him in his understanding of the game and just plain skill. And that may be his problem per what people are saying. His dad is a very good HS coach and has been a college secondary coach and apparently very strict. He kept him under tight watch and didnt really let him do anything but football and right now hes just cutting loose and not handling freedom very well. He needed to mature fast but it looks like he went in reverse and his future is going to pay for it.
Rumor is the team had an all hands meeting last night and Edwards and JJ were there and a couple of the older players started praying for them and they literally had a come to Jesus meeting where both of them "found god". If true thats great but who knows but apparently the team is fired up now after the meeting, players only as well on their own. Coaches had no part in it.
I heard about that, sounds like quite a night. Hold up a store at gunpoint and get saved all in the same night. Jesse Jackson must have called pretty fast to coach up those guys...
