On this edition of the MVFC First & Goal podcast, Kelly Burke interviews former NDSU quarterback great and three-time national champion Brock Jensen. The pair discuss what post-football life looks like and why he named his dog Frisco, how he went from education major to financial planner, and why he determined it was time to hang up the pads. Jensen shares how difficult leaving football is, why he recommends putting your identity in something beyond just your sport, and reminisces on his most memorable games at NDSU. Jensen talks about the pinch-me moment of being a guest picker on College Game Day, what makes the culture of NDSU Football so unique, and the intangibles of a good quarterback. He reveals why NDSU has developed a reputation of being ‘Quarterback U’, his advice to Trey Lance on navigating the pre-draft process, and the importance of accountability partners. Jensen analyzes Valley Football alums making a big impact in the NFL, the financial advice he would give to all college football players, and jokes about finally getting to go to Bison tailgates, including whether the tailgates live up to the hype.
