Just saw this story on Twitter from The Appalachian. I know we hate it for all the seniors this year, not being able to have a post season despite having the best offense we've had since 2007 and all, but Jamal Londry-Jackson is dealing with it with more maturity than I ever thought possible.

Here are some of his quotes:

"I love it," Londry-Jackson said. "I support the university even though it's kind of tough not to be able to lead the team to the playoffs. But, I definitely support the direction the university is going. I wish I could play some of the Sun Belt teams, unfortunately it's my last year here, but the senior class is going to go out on a good note."

"We're playing just like it's a regular season, which it is," Londry-Jackson said. "I want to spread that message to App nation, our fans and our supporters, that we're going to play like champions."

What a leader on the field and off. He is up there with Deandre as one of my favorite over all players of all time. All that athletic talent AND and a great head on his shoulders? Absolutely remarkable.

It's great to be a Mountaineer.

It's great to see Jamal taking the lead on this and being a positive role model to his teammates and to the fan base. I just hope everyone in the App family jumps on the bandwagon and follows his lead. The move is happening no matter where you stand on the issue so be positive and support the program.
