For this episode, we came together with some players on the University of Nebraska football team who transferred in from a junior college. We wanted to ask them about the experience and lifestyle they lived while they were in junior college. We had Deshon Singleton show up to the studio! He is from Hutch junior college in Kansas but was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. We also had Kai Wallen join our podcast, he is from California and went to junior college in his hometown. The last player we had join us on our podcast was Anthony Grant, he had transferred from Florida State University and went to a Junior college in New Mexico. 

All of these guys are different in their own way also from different places yet they still walked a similar path and that path is a Juco one. From injuries, to not enough film, or just flat out things not going their way is what landed them in junior college. Another thing these guys have in common is that they all embraced going to their junior college and made the best of it. We learned a lot about our fellow teammates just in this one sit down, and it makes you a little emotional to hear and see how far they have come when hearing about where they started. 

Welcome to the What’s the Word Podcast, with your Host Javin Wright and Co-Host Myles

Farmer. The duration of this podcast listening you will hear about the life of a Nebraska

Cornhuskers Equipment Manager. In the eyes of fans and just people outside of a football

program they don’t understand the importance of a manager's role. If coaches and players are

the heart and soul of a team the managers are considered the lungs that help the heart beat.

We believe managers around the world put in way more hours than the average student-

athletes and they still have to be able to do school along with having a social life. Our special

guest is a manager that we have both been knowing for some time now going on about three

years and he goes by Grant Klein.
