Much was made of Danny Jones' decision to transfer last season from Cal Lutheran to UW-Whitewater. And it would be difficult to say that it didn't pay off for both parties, as the quarterback helped lead the Warhawks to the national title with a win against Mount Union in Stagg Bowl XXXV.

But there was at least one person who was, let's say inconvenienced, by the decision. That was then-sophomore Jeff Donovan, who was behind Justin Jacobs the previous season and was expected to compete for the starting job in 2007. So when Jones won the job, Donovan had to decide whether to stick it out for another football season, or concentrate on baseball.

He stuck around. And since then he's helped lead the Warhawks to the Division III World Series in baseball and Stagg Bowl XXXVI. More on the junior quarterback in a Road to Salem feature by Bill Huber.
