‘Very driven, very motivated:’ UW-Whitewater football program excited for alum Jake Kumerow in NFL Playoffs

From WTMJ Radio: “It’s not easy making the jump from Division III football to the NFL, but Packers wide receiver and Wisconsin-Whitewater alumnus Jake Kumerow is doing just that.”

“Kumerow’s success on the pro level isn’t lost on the program he helped lead to two national championships.”

“A lot of times people think when they go to Division III well [the NFL] is not going to be a chance anymore,” said Kevin Bullis, current head football coach at Wisconsin-Whitewater. “Jake never let that even be a thought in his head.”
