We have former UConn Football standout Jamar Wilkens as a guest on Husky Talk. Jamar came in at a challenging time, from the best season in UConn Football history, to taking on a leadership role, sacrificing for the good of the team, and still dominating after switching positions.

Originally from New Jersey, he played Tight End and Linebacker in high school. His amazing athleticism and exceptional talent gave him several college options. Unfortunately, his school did not fill out the proper NCAA Clearinghouse paperwork, UConn wanted him and kept a scholarship open.

Jamar was a true student of the game and played Middle Linebacker, which is the Quarterback of the defense. In 1998 and 1999 he was an outstanding player, a tackling machine. He put in many hours of film study.

In 2000, Jamar showed us all the team came first, as he was moved to Defensive End. He recognized the young group of Defensive linemen and took on a leadership role, determined to make them better. He taught the guys how to watch film, who to key, and most importantly the work ethic it took to have success.

He was named team Defensive MVP, led the team in sacks, tackles for losses, and had the most tackles out of any of members of the D-Line.

One of his proudest moments was watching in 2002-2003, his young bucks develop into a dominant force. Uyi Osunde, Greg Smoot, Sean Mulchay, Tyler King, Hakeem Kashama, all became starters, contributors, reliable, dependable, and hard workers. The team didn't win as many games in 2000 but he understood his role to get the next group ready to play and show what the UConn way was all about.

These days Jamar has a great career and loves coaching his two young boys. Jamar bleeds blue, he has been a tremendous supporter of this podcast and it was a blast having him on, hearing some classic stories. Love you JOMAR:)
