Longtime TCU basketball fans will remember Vladimir Jaksic '00, the 6-foot-8 sharpshooter for the Frogs during the Billy Tubbs era. Today, Jaksic is a sales and leasing consultant at North Point Volvo in Atlanta, Ga., and coach of his 11-year-old son Luka's basketball team.

"Needless to say, introductions were made, and we discovered it was Jeff Boutelle '89, another TCU basketball letterman. His son Bryce is also in the fifth grade. Both of our sons were chosen to play on the sixth grade all-star team. It's not a typo. Both boys played up a year due to their skills. I guess apples don't fall far from their trees."
