Ex-IU basketball star on opposite side for football opener: 'No hate against Indiana'
Brotherly bonds outweigh the Cream and Crimson when Indiana football plays North Texas this weekend.
Trayce Jackson-Davis, a former All-American basketball star for Indiana, finds himself on the opposite side for the team's football opener. This weekend, he will be cheering against his former Hoosiers' rival, North Texas, as their quarterback, Tayven Jackson, will be taking the field at Memorial Stadium. Jackson-Davis expressed his support for the Mean Green on Sam Acho's podcast, emphasizing that family comes first and he has no hate towards Indiana.
Both brothers previously played high school football together at Center Grove High School, with Trayce earning Mr. Basketball honors in 2019, while Tayven had a successful season with a Class 6A championship football team in 2021. Tayven has played for Tennessee, Indiana, and UCF during his college career, throwing for a total of 3,451 yards, 16 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions.
