Rob Jeter's Future at WIU

With Jeter's success at WIU, I am sure he is on the radar of some programs that have openings... I hope he is committed to stay at Western.

I hope we can afford to keep him. If next season improves upon this season, we're going to have a hard time out-bidding pretty much anyone who might come calling.
Also, his son JT is a Junior this year, which means he'll be done with HS just a couple of months after the next basketball season wraps up. While JT has already received an offer to play football for us, he's also getting some interest from schools a step above us: https://www.on3.com/teams/iowa-hawkeyes ... n-at-iowa/

Essentially, once next season is over, there's not much specifically tying him to Macomb/Western other than how he personally feels about the area. Maybe we get lucky and he loves it here enough to stay for a while.
