An Expression of Love Inspires a Super Bowl Champion to Give Back

Tampa, Florida –– On Friday, July 31st Tyrone Keys a Super Bowl Champion will be inducted into the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame in his hometown of Jackson, Mississippi and his 6th grade teacher will be right there by his side after 39 years to congratulate him. Mrs. Hagan a white teacher showed compassion and courage during the heart of the Civil Rights era. She came from Baton Rouge to Dawson Elementary School as the first white teacher.  Soon after, she was asked to leave the school or else. Mrs. Hagan left Mr. Keys and his fellow classmates with the true meaning of Dr. Martin Luther King’s famous quote:  “I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character”

Mr. Keys founded “All Sports Community Service, Inc” in 1993 as a non-profit mentoring and scholarship organization dedicated to helping challenged youth achieve their dream of attending college.  Keys taught his students the idea that the skills from the playing field could be parlayed onto the field of life. Since 1993 All Sports Community Service has assisted hundreds of students obtain over $20 million in support of their college education from all over this country and in England as well. All Sports students are mentored through a combination of academics, community service, and sports. Great emphasis is placed on returning to the community to assist the next generation. All Sports is now seeing the Full Circle Participation in action with its students returning to invest time, energy, and scholarship funds into the program and the community.

Giving back to the community with such hope and excitement takes a special individual and Tyrone Keys definitely fills those shoes. As a final note, upon receiving her invitation to the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame Mrs. Hagan humbly, replied “I am deeply honored to have played a small part in laying a foundation for you and your classmates during a very historical and challenging time. I will be honored to be your guest.  Peace and Love.  Mrs. Hagan”
