This Sunday former Raiders wide receiver Greg Jenkins will become just the second player ever to be inducted into the Mississippi Bowl Hall of Fame. It was a game that essentially launched Jenkins on his path to the NFL. And just as he comes full circle on Sunday, he would like to see his pro career take the same path back to where it began -- as an Oakland Raider.
Jenkins began his college career as a preferred walk-on at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. Right away, as a freshman quarterback, he led his team to the first annual Mississippi Bowl where he was named the game's Offensive MVP.
