Joe was a four-year starter and a three-time unanimous all-conference selection at tight end. He also was placed on the Omaha World-Herald’s Nebraska NCAA Division II first-team three times. He was a second-team All-American as a junior and a first-team selection as a senior. He caught 154 passes for 1,879 yards during his career, and was the first Chadron State player to be selected to play in the Snow Bowl in Fargo, N.D. His coach, Brad Smith, called him “probably the best blocker I ever coached.”
Joe was invited to the Pro Combine in 1995 and signed a contract with the Miami Dolphins. He spent most of the 1995 season on the Dolphins’ developmental squad before being activated for two games. He was inducted into the RMAC Hall of Fame in 2005 and this past July he was one of two CSC players selected for the 12-man RMAC All-Time Offensive Team in observance of the conference’s 100th anniversary.
Joe is a chiropractor in Windsor, Colo. His wife, Kim, was a volleyball standout at Nebraska Wesleyan and is a part-time consultant for a Dallas, Texas, firm while caring for their two children, Kaley and Jensen.
