NORMAL, Ill. - Jeremy Joynt won a pair of state championships in high school and two conference championships and a bowl game in junior college. In 2006, he will look to continue his winning ways as part of the Illinois State football team. Joynt, a 6-foot-3, 258 pound tight end from Iowa Central Community College, signed a national letter of intent on Friday during the early signing period.

The Emmetsburg, Iowa native rejoins his junior college teammate Billy Speiser, who signed with the Redbirds last week, and will begin attending classes in the spring.

"We are really excited about signing Jeremy," head coach Denver Johnson said. "We are losing a guy in Jonathan Denley, who was largely responsible for the success of our running game, but we think Jeremy is of the same mold. His junior college predominately ran the ball and he is just going to be a great fit for what we ask from our tight ends and H-backs."

I don't know much about him individually, but Ellsworth and ICCC turn out serious JUCO talent.

Also, Emmetsburg is a TOP 10 HS in Iowa as far as tradition goes.....

He was a 1st Team All-Region. Has to be good if he got that honor in that Region. He comes from two great programs (Emmetsburg and ICC), which ISU should be thankful for.
