Jackson State quarterback enjoys Manning camp experience

THIBODAUX, Louisiana  -- Jackson State quarterback LaMontiez Ivy could be one of the most important players in Southwestern Athletic Conference football this season.

Ivy, who was among the nation's best college quarterbacks last season, served as camp counselor at last weekend's 20th anniversary of the Manning Passing Academy at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux.

It was an experience, Ivy said, that he will never forget.

"The experience at the Manning camp has been fun," Ivy said. "We been coming out here playing and interacting with these kids trying to make them better as well as make their visit better. These are a great group of guys that have the same goal to reach the NFL. But the kids are even better just so energetic and eager to learn. It's an honor to be invited and selected among all the quarterbacks in the country."

Ivy said he was able to learn a lot from the Mannings — Archie, Cooper, Peyton and Eli.
