Their unwavering support has been vital for Jared’s success. When Verse entered the transfer portal from the University of Albany, Jannienne converted their dining room into a decision room with recruitment letters covering the walls. With her help, Jared chose Florida State to continue his career.

Jared relies on his mother’s knowledge and guidance when making important decisions about his future. In an interview, around two years ago, he mentioned about his family and the recruitment postcards, “My mom knows more than me. It’s good to sit down with my family, look at everything, and lay it out.
