My latest offering is up at CSTV.com, an interview with Boise State running back Ian Johnson.
I must say, he was quite fun to talk to. We chatted for so long that I’ll have a second story here at HP as well. Enjoy:
Schools like Washington, Oregon State and Oregon recruited him during his senior season at Mark McGwire’s alma mater, Damien High in La Verne, Calif. But it was Boise that swooped in at the last minute and actually offered him a scholarship and a chance to play. Being a Bronco wasn’t really what he had imagined growing up, though.
“My dream school was Michigan,” said Johnson, who settles in at No. 12 on the Heismanpundit.com Post-Spring Heisman Watch. “Their program isn’t flashy, it’s more blue collar, which is more my style.
“They are not about doing back flips into the end zone.”
Take that USC….
