MUNCIE, Ind. — When Willie Snead IV looks back on why he decided to play football collegiately at Ball State, he points to a conversation he had with then-BSU head coach Pete Lembo.
There was a time, when Snead planned on attending Western Michigan. But then came that discussion with Lembo, who shared his vision for both the program and Snead’s career. And all Snead could think is that he wanted to be a part of it.
Snead spent his three seasons at BSU becoming one of the most prolific wide receivers in school history. Once a prospect who didn’t feel as if he was receiving much interest from colleges, Snead ended up setting records with the Cardinals.
