Winston Venable: Former Boise State and Professional Football Player
Manage episode 390966187 series 3291805
When I was serving my church mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, I was two weeks away from returning home after two years. The Boise State football program was playing TCU in the Fiesta Bowl that year, and I had the chance to watch that game from Brazil. The game ended after a Winston Venable interception of TCU's Andy Dalton. And I became an INSTANT Winston Venable fan from there on out (mind you that's the first time I had seen him play)
Today I get to interview Winston as we dissect his football career, which was FAR from ordinary. It was a path that not many know or understand. It was unique. He wasn't just one of those "5-Star D1 Recruits" coming out of a big time high school. He had to take the unique journey to get to the Division 1 Level of football and he'll explain that to you today.
What's also interesting in this conversation is hearing his experiences and his perspective on professional football. He had a chance to play in the NFL for the Chicago Bears organization as well as play in the CFL. Find out why he says the CFL was an overall 'better experience' as you listen in to today's episode!
Again, I always ask that you take the time to take notes on this. Please pay attention to this unique story from one of the all-time greats from Boise State University!
