The University of Missouri has made Kerrick Jackson the first Black head baseball coach in the history of the Southeastern Conference. 

“We set out to find a leader of high character with success rejuvenating a program, and we certainly found that in Kerrick Jackson,” Mizzou athletic director Desireé Reed-Francois said. “He’s a tireless recruiter, fierce competitor and a coach with deep roots in the Midwest. Coach Jackson knows what success looks like in college baseball, specifically at Mizzou. He has a vision for success and a tremendous amount of experience at all levels of baseball. I look forward to him building on our traditions and returning us to the national stage.”
