Bo Jackson, the 1985 Heisman Trophy winner, returned to Auburn Saturday to give the school's commencement address.

"I sit up and I think what you all are going to do when you leave here," Jackson told the graduates. "It really doesn't matter, as long as you go out and take what you've learned and put it to good use. Do like I did. Get outside of that box that you've grown accustomed to."

Jackson, who also played baseball and ran track at Auburn, is the father of an Auburn graduate and two current Auburn students.
