Jackson State Tigers Tickets

The Jackson State Tigers’ history with the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) dates back to 1911 when Jackson State University, also called JSU or Jackson State, appointed Dr. Zachary T. Hubert to serve as the university's first black president. He then made it one of his missions to develop a football program. In 1911, John Pinkett became the school’s first head coach. By 1952, John Merritt became head coach, and under his tutelage, JSU transformed. In 1958, the team joined the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC). To date, the Jackson State Tigers have won 18 championships. As of 2017, the JSU football program produced 94 NLF players and had four NFL players inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame – only 13 other college football programs developed more Hall of Famers than Jackson State. The team, currently coached by John Hendrick, plays at Mississippi Veteran Memorial Stadium, located in Jackson, Miss. Hendrick is the team’s 20th head coach. While most colleges and universities have two-color uniforms, to distinguish themselves from their opponents, JSU uniforms have three - blue, white and gray.
