Those lockers represented what Josh wanted to do. Said Josh about the lockers,  I was a football fan. <br><br>At Aberdeen Central High School, Josh was the 1995 South Dakota Player of the Year. He completed 160 of 254 passes for 2,471 yards and 20 touchdowns in his senior year. Josh had 5,676 yards and 35 touchdowns in his career. He was also a two-year All-conference basketball player, averaging 16-plus points per game.  Basketball was my passion in high school, said Josh.  My dad actually wanted me to play college basketball so he could see me play. I began lifting hard in my sophomore year. I learned to enjoy it. I did the Power Clean, Bench and Squat. I also did the Dot Drill, which I still do today. You have to condition yourself. You have to have quick feet the entire game. Conditioning is the key to being tough in the 4th quarter. I always ask myself ,  When do you win? The 4th quarter!  <br><br>Josh had a unique vision. Even though major colleges were not clamoring for his services, he was in control. Josh chose Weber State in Utah, which is a Division 1-AA school.  I felt it was a great situation for me, remembered Josh.  I liked Coach Dave Arslanian's philosophy of letting quarterback's lead with a game plan of throwing the football. I also felt that I had a chance to play right away. After his redshirt 1996 season, Josh tore his ACL after only four games. But he was back in just three months and planning to play in May of 1997. However, Coach Arslanian left for Utah State and Josh had a decision to make.<br><br>Something basic to Josh's mind frame is to not sit. He decided to play at a Junior College because there are no transfer limitations. Josh stayed in the state of Utah and chose Snow Junior College.  I enjoyed the state and Snow plays good JC football, said Josh. He earned first-team NJCCA All-America honors after completing 153 of 258 passes (60%) for 2,308 yards and 28 touchdowns. Josh only played in the first half of each of the ten-game schedule. Then Josh had another decision to make: where would he go now?<br><br>Many Division I schools do not recruit JC players. The closest college, BYU, was not interested in Josh. Oklahoma needed a new quarterback. Coach Bob Stoops was just in the process of starting a new era of Sooner football.  I wanted to win, remembered Josh.  The quarterback in Coach Stoops' offense was supposed to be a pivotal guy. His quarterback was supposed to be a key man and make audibles a good percentage of the time. <br><br>Josh wondered about a national title when he made his recruiting trip to Oklahoma two years ago. He asked Bob Stoops, who was then in only his first month on the job, if he felt the Sooners would be able to challenge for a Big 12 and national championship in the next two years. Stoops told him yes, and Josh signed. <br>Oklahoma was noted for their running game and had only won 12 games in the preceding three seasons. Josh thrived on the challenge to change everything. After all, he had dreamed this dream all his life. Josh dared to dream the biggest dream. He succeeded beyond all expectations by throwing for 6,800 yards and 50 touchdowns. <br><br> I don't know if anybody could have foreseen the level he has played at, said Coach Stoops.  We figured it would be a winning level, otherwise we would not have gone after him. I think there's no question he'll go down as one of the great all-time Sooner
