He had 16 career carries and two touchdowns. He was dismissed from the Hawkeyes in 2002 after being charged with second-offense drunken driving, driving with a suspended license, and providing false information to law officers during a traffic stop. He moved to California and made a career for himself as an actor, and has 35 acting credits listed on IMDB.com.
