One Mountaineer has become paramount on defense during his football career as a Mountaineer. Senior inside linebacker D’Marco Jackson has made memorable moments on the field while leading the team as a team captain off the field.
Jackson was named first team All-Sun Belt in his final two seasons, earned multiple All-American recognitions, and was the 2021 Sun Belt Conference Defensive Player of the Year.
“He’s been a special type of player. He gives you everything he’s got. He’s just an incredible leader on and off the field,” said defensive coordinator Dale Jones.
