Personal notes:
Jacob Ford is no stranger to working hard for something he wants. Ford grew up in Memphis watching his father, the late Fred “Sweet Daddy Goodlow” Ford, play and record music with countless stars in the music business, such as Little Richard, B.B. King, Ray Charles and Jerry Lee Lewis. He was an internationally renowned jazz musician who worked hard to hone his talents on the baritone saxophone and prove to himself and his family that he could make a living doing something he loved. Ford watched his father’s dedication and perseverance and vowed to do the same with his passion: football. Another goal of Jacob's is to breed a new type of iguana.
