Where are they now:
Danny Jackson – baseball (2003-07)
Danny Jackson considered his baseball career finished and looked at a job in pharmaceutical sales as the next step. Then Wichita State coach Gene Stephenson told him the El Dorado Broncos needed a hitting coach.
"Gene said that he thought I'd be a good coach and I should pursue it," Jackson said. "I took it. It was the difference between making $75,000 a year and $1,000. But it was a chance to be around baseball."
Jackson, who played first base and pitched at Wichita State, took that chance to start his career in college coaching.
