He dominated at JUCO and looked substantially better than Nunnally coming out of JUCO - good enough to get a P4 opportunity. Of course that doesn’t mean he’ll any better, or as good as Nunnally, but it’s at least a comparison point. He’s a guy to be excited about and will join a really young DE room with loads of upside. Now we need to address DT. Happy New Year!

What about the other 15 points they subtracted from the deficit in the final 15 minutes? It wasn't a millimeter here-or-there that cost us the game. They hit clutch shots, while we clanged-away from 3. Who is "clutch" on this Zips team, and who short-arms their shots when we need a bucket? Nate and Tavari are the guys I want to have the ball down the stretch. Grey, Hardman, Wilson, etc....not so much.

Is this an addition that we can get excited about? Please let it be. My nether world is sore from all the hits taken to it. Some good news to close the year would be very welcome. Regardless, Happy New Year Zips Nation!

DE that we were in on coming out of JUCO last year. Played in 3 games at Arizona this season.

Would be a huge pick-up

I think the record is more reflective of 'how' they have played, not 'who' they have played. Ark St., Princeton, had late leads and should have won them both. Perhaps a few more of those type of games make for a better team, but worse non-con record. Zips can go 13-5 in the MAC and I'm not sure they would be any better in March than they are now. That's how bad the MAC is. Zips could also go .500 in the MAC, based on what we see right now, and wouldn't be totally surprised. Disappointed, but not surprised. Non-con schedule showed they can beat bad teams, play with some good teams ... but not sure about winning against good teams.

The most interesting thing is the suits are only going to grow and for good reason. The Supreme Court has told everyone involved there needs to be a collective bargaining agreement and a meeting hasn't even been set to discuss.

The "system" has drained whatever interest I've had for NCAA football completely from me. I'm hanging on by a thread to NCAA DI basketball, men's and women's. Two threads for college soccer. @Blue & Gold is right, how do you do your job as a head coach - why do you want to do the job of a head coach - even at a MAC level school? I've always poo-pooed the comments made here regarding dropping football, dropping back to lower level football, etc. But maybe there's a point where you say, "why not?" Especially while we are in the "budget crisis" we've been in since God knows how long? Maybe there's a point where you just say "Enough!", tell the MAC see you later, and explore dropping down? It's not like it's going to hurt attendance at games, maybe season tickets and sponsors money, and seat holders that want to say they belong to a DI program. Maybe the Good Ol' Days of seeing your team in a FCS or DII, DIII Championship race would bring in at least the same number of fans and make it fun again. This post-season of NIL and Transfer portal news is simply insane and unsustainable. When it all collapses, and it will, where will the Zips stand? Just like @Blue & Gold, this is just my humble opinion....
