Ex-Sooner Dionnah Jackson-Durrett ready for her new role as the instructor of Texas' point guards

Over the course of her basketball career, Dionnah Jackson-Durrett has traveled to Austin plenty of times.

In February of 2002, Jackson-Durrett came off of Oklahoma's bench and played 41 minutes in an overtime loss to the rival Longhorns. She returned to the Erwin Center with the Sooners in each of the next three seasons. Winless on UT's court as a player, Jackson-Durrett finally savored a win in Austin in 2018 as a member of Mississippi State's coaching staff.

This week, Jackson-Durrett once again journeyed to Central Texas. This, though, was a one-way trip. Hired last month as an associate head coach on Vic Schaefer's bench at Texas, Jackson-Durrett completed her move to Austin on Tuesday.
