PORT ORANGE, Fla. – Rashean Mathis and his Jacksonville Jaguars teammates visited Port Orange Tuesday evening. The Jaguars graciously agreed to give B-CU stage time during which a stadium banner was unveiled honoring Mathis’ 2002 Buck Buchanan award winning season. Mathis set an NCAA FCS Division record with 14 interceptions that year, lead the Wildcats to a Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference championship, their first-ever FCS playoff appearance and their largest victory over Florida A&M in 27 years. Mathis was presented a replica of the banner that will hang alongside Larry Little’s NFL Hall Of Fame banner at the entrance of Daytona Beach’s Municipal Stadium.
