How Montae Glenn and Quan Jackson set the tone for the best offensive performance for Georgia Southern since 1955

Redshirt-sophomore Quan Jackson had 25 points, nine rebounds and eight steals in the season opening victory against Carver College.

In warm ups prior to Georgia Southern’s first game of the season against visiting Carver College, redshirt-sophomore Quan Jackson had a little extra bounce in his step. Going through pregame drills, the guard was flying into dunks with ease and high-fiving his teammates as he passed by.

One of Jackson’s fellow starters, senior Montae Glenn, was going through the same drills, but with more reservation.

Both Glenn and Jackson started most of the previous season, but there were more inquisitive eyes on Jackson, the second year player who hadn't been one of the top rebounders in the Sun Belt.
