Season preview: Brent relishes underdog role for Jackson State

JACKSON, Mississippi -- Despite a promising start, the Jackson State men's basketball team didn't end on a good note in coach Wayne Brent's first year.

The Tigers dropped their last three regular season games and were knocked out of the first round of the Southwestern Athletic Conference championship by last-seeded Grambling State.

With that, as well as the loses of Julysses Nobles and Brandon West, expectations are low for JSU this year, as it was predicted to finish eighth.

Brent doesn't mind that, saying it leaves more room for surprises.
