One thing that stuck out to me is that Hakeem Lawrence was named scout team DPOY. He was a freshman running back last season who got some time, but red-shirted this year. Maybe a move to DB?

Good catch. I didn't even realize that. I just kinda glanced over it. Let's hope the switch pays off next year.

The Defense Scout team is comprised of offensive players and vice-versa (the D Scout team runs the opposing team offense to prepare the Zips D for the upcoming game). Hakeem is a RB and could be a special one over the next three years.

I saw that as well, but I believe it's a typo because Varnell Garrett (listed as scout team offensive POTY) is a D-Linemen. I think they probably mixed up the scout team offensive and defensive POTY titles.

Edit: Apparently, I'm the one who is mixed up.....not the 1st time and won't be the last! Thanks for the explanation, Zip76 :wave:

Bleacher Report ranked all 126 FBS team after the season and the Zips finished at 101. Of course being Bleacher Report they had to not pay that much attanetion and do something stupid like pick a team the Zips beat and finished lower in the MAC standings ahead of them as team 99. How the hell did CNN think these guys would be an appropriate sports partner site?

They also say that the Zips had 5-7 wins, which is AS MANY WINS as they got in the last four seasons combined. Which isn't true. 3-9, 1-11,1-11, 1-11, adds up to six wins...not 5.

It's apparently always fun to bash the underdogs.

I mean it's lazy reporting, which is the vast majority of communications in general these days. Facts be damned when your a reporter, because it's not like anyone is going to fact check you.

I agree 100% with you're assessment.
