Jared Weaver recently wrapped up his career as a walk-on linebacker turned fullback for the Cyclones. Though he is busy building rocket ships for Boeing, he took some time out of his schedule to tell us what being an ISU walk-on is like. So step into the lounge, pull up a chair, grab a drink and listen to the story of an Iowa farm boy who just really wanted to play college football.
WRNL: Since some of our readers may not know much about you, why don't you tell the people a little about yourself?
Jared: I grew up on a cattle ranch and farm in Northwest Iowa near Moville, Iowa where I first learned to be "rough, tough, and not mind dust".
