Jasper Howard Biography

Jasper Howard is one of the most popular and richest American Football Player who was born on January 28, 1989 in Miami, Florida, United States. Jasper Tyrone Howard (January 28 1989 to October 18 2009) was the cornerback of the University of Connecticut Huskies from 2007 until 2009. He was fatally wounded on the 18th of October the 18th of October, 2009, just hours after UConn’s victory over Louisville Cardinals.

On the 20th of October, on a Tuesday, Connecticut students held a Day of Silence in memory of Jasper and the entire community was dressed in dark clothing to signify that they are united in their mourning. The following day, there was an candle-lit vigil on the campus. The Huskies playing game with Big East rival West Virginia in Morgantown in the afternoon, West Virginia players had decals on their helmets that included Howard’s initials. They also showed Howard’s helmet and jersey as they observed an oath of silence. The team carried Howard’s helmet and jersey during their 2010 campaign, which is when Howard was an senior. Howard’s locker is decorated with cards, letters and the poster board that was left from his Monday night memorial after his passing and will remain decorated until the time of his death. A huge mural located in the foyer in Burton Family Football Complex Burton Family Football Complex that includes the former player Alfred Fincher will be replaced with a photograph of Howard as well as a plaque that will commemorate his achievements and life and the quote that was uttered by Jasper after the 18th of October victory against Louisville, “Play each play like it’s the last play you’ll ever play.” In addition, Edsall is planning on creating a foundation to assist urban youth in paying for college as well as assist the families of those who have terminal illnesses as Howard considered important. In addition an ex- Miami Edison Senior High School teammate and former Clemson Tigers cornerback Chris Chancellor paid tribute to Howard by changing his number from 38 to. In the Fiesta Bowl on January 1 2011, in the match against Oklahoma Sooners Oklahoma Sooners, teammate Kashif Moore wore Jasper’s number 6- jersey to pay tribute. Songs of tribute were composed by Little Haiti rapper Hollywoodyo, called “For The Dead”.

On November 1, 2014, during that year’s Homecoming, UConn unveiled a monument dedicated to Howard at Rentschler Field in front of the scoreboard on the concourse level. The monument was funded in part by a donation from Howard’s former coach Randy Edsall, then head coach at the University of Maryland, who made an appearance at the ceremony via a recorded message played on the video board. More than 30 former teammates of Howard were present at the ceremony—including his best friends on the team, Andre Dixon and Kashif Moore—as well as greater than 30 members of Howard’s extended family including his fiancée and daughter.

Howard was the first from his family to attend college, when he was accepted at the University of Connecticut. The first year of his college career, Howard was part of seven games as defensive back reserve and on special teams, but did not get a start. In the offseason, he was working tirelessly on the field and it paid off. Howard started all 13 games of this season in his second year as a cornerback and was the leader of his team in Big East Conference in punt returns. In his junior season, Howard was improving every single game. In his final game for the Huskies on the 17th of October 2009, he recorded seven solo tackles and four assisted, giving the team a score of eleven tackles for the game. This was a record for him, and a personal best. He also made an fumble recovery.
