Tennessean Jabari Greer Plays Tennessee in Nashville

        Saints star Jabari Greer is from Tennessee, played for Tennessee and just yesterday was playing AGAINST Tennessee IN Tennessee. Is that enough of a Tennessee connection for you?

        Greer is a super-nice guy, very friendly, well-spoken, intelligent and personable. He was glad to speak to a writer after the Titans-Saints preseason game at LP Field.

Greer warms up for the Saints-Titans game.

        "Coming back to Nashville is wonderful," Greer said. "Tennessee is the place that molded me into the man I am, with the values that I have- family first, giving back to the community, slowing down to enjoy the finer things in life."
        Greer obviously likes his home state and his alma mater.
        "It was a dream come true playing for Tennessee," he added. "I will always have love for the University of Tennessee."
        The big Saints stars were all in Nashville- Sean Payton, Drew Brees, Reggie Bush and company.

Greer, a coach and teammates discuss the defense.

Reggie Bush enjoyed talking to teammates during the game.

        Bush is obviously an incredible athlete and football player. In person, he is not extremely tall. Both Bush and Brees were very nice to sign a lot of autographs for the many Saints fans at the game.
        Gregg Williams certainly was able to speak to some good friends from his days in Nashville when he was the Titans' defensive guru.
