The L.A. Times had a big piece on Tyrone today. Very interesting read on a young man who has hardly played much football in his life.
Taleni played a lot of rugby in Samoa and eventually made his way to America (Mount Sac JC) to play football.
Coaches Riley & Nua must have incredibly sharp eyes to see hidden talent in Tyrone because the youngster made all of five tackles in 10 games last season at Kansas State. Tyrone hated the cold weather in Kansas and entered the portal in hopes of heading west again.
Riley & Nua gobbled him up quickly.
Hope this link is readable:
