Blake Jarwin | No Scholarship, No Problem – Oklahoma State & Dallas Cowboys | The ROK Podcast

Coach Sean Love Season 1 Episode 23

Coach Sean Love of the ROK Podcast sat down with Blake Jarwin, a name that embodies perseverance, grit, and determination. Raised in the small town of Tuttle, Oklahoma, Blake’s journey to the NFL wasn’t handed to him — it was earned every step of the way.

In this episode, Blake opens up about being overlooked early in his football career. He wasn’t the biggest, fastest, or most hyped recruit — but he had something even more valuable: unshakable work ethic and heart. At Oklahoma State University, Jarwin walked on to the football team and grinded his way to a scholarship by his junior year, eventually earning recognition with multiple Big 12 honors.

But his story didn’t stop there. Despite going undrafted, Blake was signed by the Dallas Cowboys, where he once again had to fight for a spot. Through resilience and readiness, he carved out a meaningful NFL career, becoming a trusted tight end in one of the league’s most iconic franchises.

Blake shares powerful insights on mental toughness, leadership, dealing with setbacks, and why staying ready matters more than ever in life and in sports. Whether you're an athlete, a coach, or someone chasing a dream — this conversation will leave you motivated and locked in.
