Texas Longhorns head coach Tom Herman notched the commitment of Australian punter Isaac Pearson at the end of May and the future Longhorn jumped on the Texas Football Talk show to discuss the Horns, barbecue, and how Madden got him into the American sport.
“I didn’t know much about the sport at all,” Pearson told hosts Clint and Jeremy Lochabay. “We still get the Madden games here and I didn’t know there was a college pathway.”
Pearson was playing as the Pittsburgh Steelers and was told that the Steelers punter, Jordan Berry, was from Australia.
