1978 Profile: Scott Dierking

Running Back
No. 25
Purdue
"The Jets' second-leading rusher in 1977, Scott is adept at running inside and getting to the outside when called upon. His forte is that he hits the line quickly and keeps his feet moving for extra yardage. Scott is a real hustler who can play on specialty teams.
He was an All-Big Ten choice and team MVP and co-captain at Purdue. Scott was Illinois state wrestling champion as a high school senior."
