What was it like playing your football at North Dakota State?
"It was fun, real fun. North Dakota State is a football school. We had our diehard fans. They come out there every Saturday and they yell and scream and they get you pumped up. You definitely want to do it for the fans and your teammates. I had a lot of fun. If I could go back in time, I'd do the same thing over and over again."
In your senior season, your North Dakota State team beat Eric Decker's Minnesota squad. Have you ever mentioned that to him?
"I said something to Deck about it. I don't think he wanted to remember that game. He kind of smiled and brushed it off, but he knew that we came in there to win and we did. It was exciting. That was a big win for our program."
Thanks for posting this. Love these comments from one of the all time great Bison. It would be great for Joe to come home after his playing days are over.
