Almost A Pro

| | Comments (0) |

Defensive end Lawrence Jackson said thought he would turn pro last season.
``At one point at the end last year I was gone. I thought that I was ready to embrace the challenge
of the next level but I stepped back and looked in my heart and saw some things that I was second guessing.
``I felt like if we got most of our core group of guys back that we could be a great team and it was a great decision to come back. It allowed me to grow as a man and a player as well as see different perspective of things.

Coming back as a senior allowed me to really calm down and play football without worrying what I’m going to do next year. The NFL isn’t going anywhere.”
