Iowa football: Iowa walk-on walks walk - Chicago Tribune

Came across this. Pretty good read.

From article:

Suddenly the Iowa die-hards sitting in front of them at Kinnick Stadium told Larry and wife Irene: "Your son is next up."

"Next up?" Larry asked. "What's that?"

They insisted Mark would be summoned to play tailback. Larry wondered: Is that possible?

Maybe Canzeri's Dad should read this. Better, he ought to call Larry Weisman. Better still, we should thank our lucky stars that not only did we get a "bargain walk-on", we got humble and level-headed parents to go with him.

We need Mark to have a big day tomorrow,and keep hanging onto the ball!
If Iowa does not turn the ball over,they will win.

Asked this week how he ended up at Air Force, Weisman replied: "Just got lost on my way to Iowa, I guess."

Loved this quote.
