Thank you for tuning into another powerful episode of Sports Talk with Fat Larry! You know I always have to start things off with my HBCUs — and today we’ve got a special one for you.
In this episode, I sit down with Texas Southern University’s Interim Athletics Director, Dr. Paula L. Jackson, a nationally respected athletics executive with more than 20 years of experience leading and elevating collegiate sports programs across the country.
From Southern University to Clark Atlanta, from Hampton to Norfolk State, and now right here at Texas Southern University, Dr. Jackson has built a legacy rooted in student-athlete success, innovation, and service. She has created national models like Classroom on the Road, launched multiple new sports programs, forged million-dollar partnerships, and helped shape the future of NIL education for HBCU athletes.
In our conversation, Dr. Jackson opens up about:
• Her Baton Rouge roots and her journey as a two-time HBCU graduate
• How she broke into athletics leadership despite limited opportunities for women at the time
• Her years working in both collegiate and professional sports — including five seasons with the Atlanta Falcons
• The new energy she’s bringing to TSU Athletics
• Her vision for student-athlete development, community engagement, alumni support, and NIL innovation
• Why she believes Texas Southern is positioned to become a national model for mid-major athletics
• And how the entire TSU community can “Be Legendary” together
This episode is all about HER — her story, her leadership, and her dedication to elevating HBCUs. Trust me, you don’t want to miss this conversation with one of the most respected minds in college athletics.
