How can the piston be stuck if you were able to turn the engine over?

Cranked it, turned the key, tried to turn it over. Whatever it would be, when I looked in the plug hole the piston wasn't moving.

Sounds like you have a broken connecting rod, was there any oil in it? If so how much? The block should be fine hopefully.

When I checked the stick it was dirty but almost full. I hope to dig into it a little more and see. Would a rod be something I could replace? I'm fairly new at this stuff.

It's hard to see the piston thru the plug hole, plug is not over the top of the piston.
If you have air moving then your rod and piston is intact.
Go get a head gasket and remove the head and check for proper movement of the valves
Sand the head flat and put it back together.
Then put some gas in it and fire it up.

Doesn't sound to bad at all and thanks! So what am I seeing when I look through the hole. What tool is best to be sure the head bolts are properly torques? What do you sand it with?

Depending on what head is on the engine, you're probably seeing the top of the engine block between the valves.

You will need a torque wrench.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
