Quarterback Upbringing shapes Barnett Father-son bond leads to success on field By Jake.Calhoun @iowastatedaily.com Jared Barnett has made the most of his opportunities as a redshirt freshman on the ISU football team. The 6-foot, 200-pound native of Garland, Texas, led Iowa State (4-4, 1-4 Big 12) to its first conference win of the season Saturday in a 41-7 upset of then-No. 19 Texas Tech in his first- ever start as an ISU quarterback. Through his budding success as the new starting quarterback for the Cyclones, Barnett is quick to point out that the influence of his father, Duke, has been instrumental in shaping who he is today. “He really keeps me humble,” Barnett said of his father. “He knows that some people around me are try- ing to hype me up and that’s good, but then again that’s not what he wants me to be and he just wants to keep me level-headed and keep me humble.” Duke has been coaching Jared since he first picked up a football at age 4, stressing the proper mechan- ics — anywhere from movement of the feet to eye shifting while making reads at the line of scrimmage — re- quired to flourish at quarterback. “[Jared’s] family relationship is fantastic,” said ISU coach Paul Rhoads. “His dad is very even-keeled. That upbringing, that guidance, that relationship is very strong and cer- tainly is supportive to his success.” After shaking off the trauma that resulted from throwing an intercep- tion in his first collegiate pass attempt File photo: Tim Reuter/Iowa State Daily Quarterback Jared Barnett looks for a pass during the game against Texas A&M on Oct. 22. In his first start at quarterback, Barnett led Iowa State to a 41-7 upset on BARNETT.p8 >> the road against then-No. 19 Texas Tech. Barnett and Cyclones will take on Kansas at 11:30 a.m. Saturday at Jack Trice Stadium.
