John Friesz was a three-time first-team All-Big Sky Conference selection and a three-time All-American during his unforgettable career at the University of Idaho. The Coeur d’Alene High product was actually born in Missoula. He became the first player in Big Sky history to win the Walter Payton Award when he earned the Division I-AA most outstanding player honor in 1989.
Friesz has distinct memories from his UI days of playing against Montana. He shares his perspective on his College Football Hall of Fame playing days in this week’s ESPN Roundtable.
