Rushing is a Minnesota United contributor for Zone Coverage. After moving to the Twin Cities in 2017, Jeremy could be heard on KS95 before venturing back toward his passion, sports. He grew up in Moline, Ill. and, aside from United, is a die-hard US Soccer, St. Louis Cardinals and Illinois Fighting Illini football & basketball fan (sorry). Jeremy's passion for the Loons began at the first game he attended at TCF Bank Stadium and has grown ever since.
