Over the last 29 days of the Iowa State season in 2016, as Jacob Park seized control of the offense, he completed 92 of 152 passes for 1,322 yards and eight touchdowns, with three interceptions -- comparable to the production of Brad Kaaya, Jake Browning and Mason Rudolph and better than J.T. Barrett, Deondre Francois and Sefo Liufau.
Now consider that Park, once an early enrollee at Georgia and an Elite 11 finalist, did not play football for the two seasons prior.
By his own description, he suffered a dramatic fall from grace.
