...however back in 1970 the folks of Jacksonville did have somthing to cheer about:

Artis Gilmore (born September 21, 1949) is an American retired basketball player who played in the American Basketball Association (ABA) and National Basketball Association (NBA). Gilmore was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame on August 12, 2011.
A star center during his two collegiate years at Jacksonville University, in Jacksonville, Florida, Gilmore led the Dolphins to the NCAA Division I championship game in 1970, where his team was beaten 80-69 by the UCLA Bruins. Gilmore remains the top player in rebounds per game in the history of NCAA Division I basketball

Not quite. Jacksonville State is in Jacksonville, Alabama while Jacksonville University is located in Jacksonville, Florida.

As a former longtime resident of Bowling Green, OH, a proud BGSU Falcon and a current resident of Jacksonville, Florida I couldn't let this "Isn't that in Kentucky?" moment stand :-)
