Statement from Laird Veatch Regarding Kerrick Jackson

Jun 03, 2023 | Baseball

"We're disappointed to lose Coach Kerrick Jackson after one season as our head baseball coach. In just one year, however, Coach Jackson revitalized the energy of Memphis Baseball, and we look forward to continuing the momentum he helped create. This job is extremely attractive due to our fan base, our location and the renovations to FedExPark Avron Fogelman Field alongside other commitments made to the program over the last year. It's tough to lose a coach after one season, but we appreciate what Coach Jackson did, and we are happy for him and his family. We will hire another great coach to lead our program, and we are looking forward to continued success."
