Is a Dawg. Haven't seen it posted here...

"Jason Simpson is a native of Ellisville, Miss. He signed as a quarterback with Mississippi State and played for two seasons for the Bulldogs. He also played baseball for Ron Polk at Mississippi State before transferring to Southern Miss in 1992. At Southern Miss, Simpson was a two-time all-conference selection in baseball and was team captain his senior season.

After earning a bachelor's degree in 1994 from Southern Miss, he spent the next year as a graduate assistant football coach at Delta State, where he coached defensive backs. In the spring of 1995, Simpson served as an assistant football and head baseball coach at Collins High School in Mississippi."

In 2011, Simpson received an honor that he treasures more. He was ordained as a deacon at First Baptist Church in Martin.

Sophomore tight end Matt Stewart said, “He tries to lead us down the same path to be men of God.”

He was a very good HS quarterback at South Jones. They were actually good back then.

My next door neighbor was Provost at Tennessee-Martin for several years. She left there for the same position at UAH, then died from cancer a couple years after that.
