Default $6 JJ on the button, low blinds

Sorry, can't find the HH for this hand, disappeared off the face of the earth.

It's $6.50 FTP, blinds at about 30/60, I'm on the button.

MP has about t1700, I have about t1400, BB has about t1000.
MP raises t180
I have JJ and think about a strong re-raise, but call looking to get all chips in without scare cards or a J on the flop
BB calls too
Flop 972r
BB checks, MP raises t100, I raise t450, BB folds, MP goes all in, I ???

I figured villain is TT+ here, perhaps A9/K9, or has trips here.

Can I call?

at this level ($6) I would think that the avg person's opening range is pretty wide and would re-raise preflop. His 100 bet is pretty weak. After he re-raises you, you have close to half your stack in w/ an overpair, I just get it in here.

You answered your question your self, for the range of hands you give villian you shoud call, because you are just slightly worse then a coinflip here, with already that much money in it call.
I dont know what its like in 6.5 games but in my 50,100 i would not give him that much of a range and consider folding and try fighting my way back with half the initial stack, but that depends on what i know about villian(the initial stack was 1.5k or?)

id prestoshipitholla shove preflop, and then on the flop you have to call once he sticks his stack in.
