ZachTheZip Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 http://www.thisweeknews.com/live/content/p...at=&sid=104Great story about a great kid. I always love to see players who go out and earn their scholarship. It always means more when you earn something instead of being given it.

It always means more when you earn something instead of being given it.The Zips, who went 5-7 a year ago, since have switched from a 4-3 to a 3-4 defense.So perhaps this reporter isn't exactly on top of Zip football. It's a nice story of reward for effort nonetheless. Do you think it's possible Tyler or someone else accidentally mentioned a scheme change to this guy but the details got screwed up somehow?

Do you think it's possible Tyler or someone else accidentally mentioned a scheme change to this guy but the details got screwed up somehow?Sadly, instead of that, I think he just has some fact issue problems ..."Junior Mike Thomas, a Hartley graduate who spent time last year at strong safety when he was the second-leading tackler (81), has moved to linebacker......Akron lost two of its first three last year, including a 17-15 loss to Big East champion Cincinnati on Sept. 27."Thomas never played safety and Cincinnati was the 5th game last year - though it is correct we lost two of our first three so he's got that going for him.
