Cortez Hankton Gives Back to Texas Southern



Former wide receiver Cortez Hankton, who is presently a wide receiver for the Jacksonville Jaguars NFL team, generously donated a $1,000.00 scholarship to Texas Southern Athletic Department. In order for the students to qualify for the scholarship they must excel in academics as well as athletics. The scholarship can be utilized by any student who participates in a sport with a GPA of 3.0 or better. ?It?s my honor to be able to give back to a deserving student such as Texas Southern University has given back to me,? stated Hankton.
 



This is a good thing on his part because he could have chosen to do nothing.It's his money but it sure would have been nice if this gift was a little larger.I'm still grateful that he did something.
 
I was at the Jaguars game today against the Texans. This guy needs to be starting opposite Jimmy Smith. He had a good game today and has been making great progress all season long. He and Byron Leftwitch should be a lethal combination for years to come.
