IOWA CITY, Iowa -- There were times in Colin Cole’s football career when the easy thing to do would have been walking away. But the 6-foot-3, 300-pound defensive tackle from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, isn’t wired that way.
Cole played as a true freshman for the University of Iowa in 1999, a year that produced one win and 10 losses. During that offseason, Cole wanted to return to Florida for good, but close friends and his parents convinced him to stay.
