Stansbury had a standout athletic career at the high school, collegiate, and professional levels and has since made significant contributions to his community as an ambassador for sports.
Stansbury holds the 5th longest highschool throw in Texas State History in the discus at 206 ft. His combination of athleticism and leadership on the field earned him scholarships to some of the nation’s top collegiate programs before committing to UCLA.
He was a two-year starter, serving as a key blocker for All-American running back Deshaun Foster and contributing as a short-yardage rusher and receiver.
One of his most memorable moments came during the 2000 season, when he scored the game-winning touchdown against the University of Michigan at the Rose Bowl Stadium, a play that is still celebrated among Bruins fans.
In addition to football, Stansbury competed for the UCLA Track and Field Team from 1997 to 1999, specializing in the discus, shot put, and javelin.
Following his retirement from professional football, Stansbury returned to his hometown of El Paso, where he has become a highly respected figure in sports media and community development.
Stansbury has served as a sports commentator for KTSM 9 (NBC Affiliate)'s Overtime program for nine seasons and is the co-host of the Coldest Zone Podcast, which ranks in the top 5% globally for downloads.
The podcast focuses on high school and college football in El Paso and features in-depth analysis and interviews with prominent figures in sports.
In 2024, Stansbury debuted as the Color Commentator for UTEP football on ESPN+ during Conference USA broadcasts, working alongside Andy Morgan on play-by-play.
