RootforRoo44 Posted April 2, 2012 Report Posted April 2, 2012 Nicely informed the coaching staff earlier today LINK Quote
CincyZip Posted April 2, 2012 Report Posted April 2, 2012 I truly believe that he was the right quarterback for Ianello, it is just too bad that he had no one to throw to, nor a line to protect him. I think Moore is clearly the favorite for the job now, as he has won three state championships under a Bowden type offense. Quote

xu9697 Posted April 2, 2012 Report Posted April 2, 2012 I think some mentioned concerns with 7 QBs. Down to 5. Always works out. Quote

PN7 was brought in by the Brookhart regime under which he did ok. I wish Patrick the best. Quote

Man, when I saw this quote, I had to remind myself that there are indeed Brookhart recruits still on the team. It's kind of shocking to think about. Some of these guys are on their third coach. The past two years seemed like a long time. Quote

I wish Patrick the best. Exactly. Ianello would even struggle with Electronic Football QB's. It's hard to really say how good Nicely is. I hope he has a great senior season somewhere . Quote
johnnyzip84 Posted April 2, 2012 Report Posted April 2, 2012 Good luck, Patrick! I hope you can find an offense suited to your skills. I still say you have the ability to throw the deep out about as well as I've seen in college. Quote
LZIp Posted April 2, 2012 Report Posted April 2, 2012 Sad to see him go. With the few run ins I've had with him, he seems like a pretty good person. I will confess though that I do not really see the point in transferring. It's his senior season, and its not like he really has a chance of going pro or anything. I'd like him to stay at UA, take what he can from the experience of being coached by TB, and get a good degree. Regardless, wish him the best. Quote

I'd like him to stay at UA, take what he can from the experience of being coached by TB, and get a good degree. Regardless, wish him the best. He wants to play. It was obvious he wasn't going to do it here. He was probably better suited for DII anyhow, he just didn't have what it took to be successful at this level but you gotta give it to him for sticking it out and for taking the pounding he did behind the poor OL he had in front of him. I am sure he will land somewhere and pick up some quality playing time and perform at a high level. Go out with a blast PN Quote
Dave in Green Posted April 3, 2012 Report Posted April 3, 2012 I really appreciate PN7 sticking with UA through a really crappy part of its football history. He looked promising at times and lost at others. It's hard to say how much of that was him and how much was the mess around him. He never gave up trying, and for that he deserves great credit. I sincerely hope he succeeds in whatever comes next in his life. Quote
zipseuph Posted April 3, 2012 Report Posted April 3, 2012 I'd like to join everyone in wishing him the best! Quote

To me you will always be a Zip. You are part of a special band of brothers that survived the darkest coaching era ever in Zip football history. Quote

Lee Adams Posted April 8, 2012 Report Posted April 8, 2012 Man, when I saw this quote, I had to remind myself that there are indeed Brookhart recruits still on the team. It's kind of shocking to think about. Some of these guys are on their third coach. The past two years seemed like a long time. Scary isn't it? Nicely got caught up in circumstances beyond his control. He does have D-I talent with the 'right' system' and coaching. I still keep looking back to his first year. Got thrown into the fire and performed well. The proram came apart after that. Too bad for him this didn't happen at least a year ago. Think he would have made somebody a solid QB. Quote

Think he would have made somebody a solid QB. This is the worst part about college football. So many kids get caught in the middle of situations that are beyond their control - and most of them do not thrive/survive them. I hope that Patrick finds a place to play this coming season - and that his season is everything he wants it to be. I can guarantee that Coach Bowden will help him in whatever ways he can - whether it's guiding him to the right program, or giving recommendations, etc. Quote
RootforRoo44 Posted April 9, 2012 Author Report Posted April 9, 2012 Word is Nicely is looking to get with Brookhart at Colorado. Hoping to find out more soon. Quote
Zipmeister Posted April 9, 2012 Report Posted April 9, 2012 Word is Nicely is looking to get with Brookhart at Colorado. Hoping to find out more soon. That should increase his playing time.. Quote
NewZipsFan Posted April 9, 2012 Report Posted April 9, 2012 That should increase his playing time.. I don't think that will happen. He'll end up somewhere, but I doubt CO has a scholly available at this point. I could be wrong - just hope Patrick goes where he wants to and get the playing time he wants as well. Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted April 9, 2012 Report Posted April 9, 2012 I'll place my bets on either Fordham or Towson. With YSU and Ashland being a dark horse candidates. Quote
Hugo42 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Posted April 10, 2012 I'll place my bets on either Fordham or Towson. With YSU and Ashland being a dark horse candidates. Fordham is in the lead. Colorado just took a transfer from Texas Connor wood. Also it takes two to tango and JD was not going to tango with nicely and co Quote
johnnyzip84 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Posted April 10, 2012 Walsh and Malone are new members of D2's GLIAC this year. Just sayin'. But Forgham certainly makes sense with JM as HC. Quote
BirdZip Posted May 25, 2012 Report Posted May 25, 2012 Not far off... Nicely ends up at Lake Erie Quote
GP1 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Posted May 25, 2012 Not far off... Nicely ends up at Lake Erie I lived in NE Ohio for 20 years and never heard of this school. I thought he could have done better than this. In any event, good luck to him. Quote
