Late last Saturdy night I found myself in a coffee shop near Akron, Ohio and came upon Jakarr and his brother home for the holidays after the game against YSU. They were getting drinks for their family waiting in the car.
I saw his St. John's jacket and struck up a conversation with Jakarr, his brother, my friend and her son and her son's pal...both age 13.
Let me tell you this...if there were ever a college athlete you would want your kids to meet and talk to and model themselves after, Jakarr is the one. Humble, smart, loving brother and all around kind hearted person who also happens to bring it on the floor.
Can't say enough good things about him....we ended up spending about 10 minutes with he and his brother...
I am an Ohio State & Pitt fan....add St. John's and Jakarr to that list!
Merry Christmas!
