“I was looking to change my number, and for a little bit in everybody’s mind No. 8 was kind of off-limits,” Jock said. “So I was like, ‘I’m not really going to wear No. 8.’ Then it came to my mind, like, ‘I don’t see a reason why not.’ But I wasn’t going to try to get the number without asking Mo. A native of Mankato, Minn., Jock was a three-sport athlete in high school. He lettered in basketball and track as well as football. His prep career included 54 receptions for 814 yards and nine touchdowns as a receiver while adding 52 tackles and four interceptions on defense.For the second half of his high school career, he moved from Minnesota to Virginia, where he attended Episcopal High School in Alexandria.
Jock came to Fort Collins a little over a year ago hungry to prove himself and play right away. He impressed his teammates and coaches so much early on that he played his way into the Rams’ season opener against Washington State. Jock finished his freshman season with 34 total tackles, 0.5 tackles for loss and a fumble recovery. While he didn’t start, he played in all 12 CSU games.CSU defensive leaders went to a river in Nebraska to form tighter bond: “We’re really a different team”Keeler: Why CSU Rams star Tory Horton turned down Corvette summer in SEC Country for one more ride in FoCoNow, he enters his second season as a starter at linebacker alongside senior Chase Wilson.
