Jackson State Shocks FCS With Unexpected Preseason Ranking—What It Means for the Season Ahead
They improved the team drastically with several key transfers and recruits joining the team this offseason. Perhaps the most interesting piece added was former Edward Waters and Mississippi Valley State wide reciever Nate Rembert. Rembert, an All-SWAC First Team honoree, announced on New Year’s Day that he’s committing to T.C. Taylor and the Tigers. This decision comes after he entered the transfer portal on December 4th.
The sophomore wide receiver had an outstanding season with the Delta Devils, racking up 70 catches, 1,038 yards, and four touchdowns. Eventually, Rembert announced that he was once again entering the transfer portal in April but decided to stay with Jackson State to contend for another conference championship. His addition will certianly boost Jackson State’s offense, which averaged 189.3 passing yards per game while notching 27 passing touchdowns last season. The high levels of production in their offensive unit was thanks to the performances of standout talents such as wide receiver Isaiah Spencer and running backs Joanes Fortilien and Ja’Naylon Dupree.
