Jared was born on February 18, 1975 to Eugene and Connie Bankey in Miles City, Montana. Jared was educated in the Miles City District Schools and graduated from CCDHS in 1993. After high school, he received his education at Mayville and played for the Mayville Comet football team. His second year of college he transferred to Western College in Dillon, Montana and played football for the Western College Bulldogs when they played for the NAIA Championship in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Following his schooling, he returned to Miles City where he worked for AWARE, Mental Health, City of Miles City and as a varsity football coach and freshman basketball coach.
Football was the sport he put his heart into during the off season, looking and studying the players and plays of teams in certain situations during the game. To Jared, every player on the field was equally talented and he treated and coached them that way. He lived and breathed football. He loved his family and seeing young teenagers succeed. Jared was a member of the Elks and was a loyal knight.
