Jared Zabransky - in The Media

In The Media

Zabransky told ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit in an interview that he could throw a potato 100 yards. The comment has been referenced in the video games NCAA Football 07 and NCAA Football 08 where Herbstreit will sometimes say "That reminds me of the time that kid at the Liberty Bowl told me he could throw a potato 80 yards." Herbstreit was a color commentator at the 2004 Liberty Bowl, Zabransky's first bowl game as a starter.

On February 28, 2007 it was announced that Zabransky would grace the cover of EA's video game NCAA Football 08. He is the second of the game's cover athletes to date to go undrafted, after its first feature athlete, Tommie Frazier on College Football USA 97.

Famous quotes containing the word media:

    The media have just buried the last yuppie, a pathetic creature who had not heard the news that the great pendulum of public conciousness has just swung from Greed to Compassion and from Tex-Mex to meatballs.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
