Apparently the reporter is also a pretty reputable dude with multiple reporting Emmys who also played college football and baseball despite being born without legs

My favorite recent Gopher.

Such an amazing story

Always cool when you see those athletes or high profile figures that just "get it". Fleck has shown an eye for finding/developing those kind of players/people.

Side note - during the interview Jack makes a comment about "being where your feet are" (sports cliche, not related in any way to the reporter)....I guarantee his teammates are going to give him so much crap for saying that to a legless reporter

Jack is getting a ton of praise for this.....that is awesome to see a guy getting rewarded for just being a good dude.

That's an Elite picture and gesture from Jack.

Augsburg College grad who wrestled and played football and baseball there. Great story.
