Duane is a lawyer who either is in the process or has got his law degree at the University of Windsor.

Coaches five Swarm players (Brock Boyle, Riley Kemp, Eric Pacey, Jamie Taylor and Dean Hill) this summer. Only Boyle was with Six Nations last year. Kemp was with Victoria last summer but made the move east this summer. Taylor came back to Ontario after a year at Nanaimo. Pacey didn’t play last summer. Hill was drafted by Six Nations I believe. Either it was the appeal to play with Brock Boyle, which is undeniable and/or Jacobs is Marty O’Neill’s guy and Marty wanted him to get acquainted with some of the Swarm.
