Nice story about one of our Zip athletes- https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/sports/2021/05/13/dinah-shore-trophy-award-winner-ivana-shah-survives-run-bad-luck/5021183001/

Wait! our archival actually puts out information on its football program? Now that cheating. Our sports information dept believes the least you know about the team the better. I think this is an effort to lessen the pain of losing and the dept is actually doing the humanitarian thing for all concerned. I'd hate to see the community pain we would all share if we were actually led to believe this team was getting better in the off-season. Gotta love their effort to make us feel better. I have it on good authority (I heard it from Meister in a bar) that our athletics administration plans an all-out media blitz for the Bryant game. They feel we might win one, but for the other games why risk it. Sheer brilliance!

Just for the heck of it I took a look at the Zips 2021 football roster. Not counting the 2 guys you mention (or any other late additions) there are 101 players listed. What a disturbing breakdown by class: 6 Sr or R-Sr, 14 Jr or R-Jr, 24 So or R-So, and 57 Fr or R-Fr. I haven't checked it out but have a strong suspicion there aren't many D1 teams younger than the Zips. Don't think our youth is going to make it any easier to win games this year.
