Is Kevin “Catfish” Jackson that passed away yesterday…

The same Catfish that used to post on the Vent?

He was an OL on the 1980 team.

There was a Kevin Jackson who... I think... was a DL at UGA in the early-1980s. He played high school football at Cartersville High School. But when he was younger he lived in Rockmart. We were the same age and played Little League baseball together one or two years. 

I found his obituary and it says he grew up in Cartersville. I believe this might be the guy I am thinking about.

I think you may be talking about Shelton Stevens.  He was a friend of Lewis Grizzard, and ended up being a big fundraiser for the Children’s Hospital of Atlanta.  He was also the guy that would present the Governor’s Cup to the winner of the Georgia-Georgia Tech football game.
