Delaware State head coach DeSean Jackson recently criticized his own work habits during an interview with Da Get Got Pod. The coach shared his work schedule, stating he arrives at the office at 6:30 a.m. and leaves at 2 p.m. Jackson argued that merely being present all day does not guarantee success, emphasizing that players can still be out-schemed or out-worked.
Jackson maintained a relaxed approach to work hours, stating that he is not a coach who believes in being on-site from early morning to late evening. In contrast, Richmond head coach Russ Huesman disagreed with Jackson's philosophy, expressing his belief that extended hours are necessary for success. Despite the differing opinions, Jackson's work ethic has not translated into success for the Hornets.
In his first two seasons, the team went 8-4 in 2025 and only 1-11 in 2024. The Hornets were one game away from securing the MEAC championship in 2025 but fell short to South Carolina State. However, the team has shown improvement this season, defeating Stony Brook and having a close loss to William & Mary. Currently, Delaware State stands at 2-2 and is set to host Towson this Saturday.
