I think Jake would be an excellent choice for first RCAF director!
" Then it was back to the bench until 2002 mop-up duty as coach Jim Haslett stuck with Aaron Brooks and missed the playoffs."
DOOOOH! we needed 1 win out of the last three games to make the playoffs.....1
Haslett was a tool and Moron Brooks was your QB!!!
The rest is history. GEAUX JAKE! GEAUX PANTHERS!!!

Jake was better than Blake as well.
I blame Mike McCarthy, who at the time was a "my guy" coach.
As I may have said before, as alumni (there ya go, Boomer) and fans, we are looking for players who are going to represent us and our beloved university well. Not thugs (see A&M recruits) or bragadocious, "look-at-me" types (see Latech), but real men that display the character we want to see in ourselves. Jake is all of that. He was a grinder before the term was coined. Never let go of the rope before there was even a rope to grab hold of. If I ever get a chance to meet the man in person, I hope to get a chance to thank him for all he has done for my university, and all that he continues to do. Great guy.
I was in school with Jake and have had several opportunities to talk with him. He's as good as it gets. My family and I ran into former NFL great Kevin Greene at Disney World and he really had a lot of respect for Jake and thought he was one of the toughest QB's he faced.
