Jackson is the second coach Dave Doeren has brought over from his old NIU staff.
"Fris Jackson played in the NFL and had a great career," said Doeren. "He comes from the inner city of Chicago and understands how to relate to guys from that environment and help them mature through the process. He's been very good helping our young men who had issues off the field to grow up and mature. I think he can also help our guys understand the reality of how hard it is and what it takes to be an NFL football player."
I guess that means Troy Walters is out of a job.
