Whatever his "headcase" issues that were being blasted around seem to have gone by the wayside, or were false to begin with. Proud of you, Mr. Evans!
I admit, Zach is becoming my favorite Frog. He never complained when he had limited carries in the early part of the season. But he put his head down and worked hard. And by the end of the year he was easily our number 1 option. And tough as nails. He took some major hits last year and always got up determined to run harder. I would've loved to have seen him run for 150 yards against arkie.

I can remember a TCU team coming off a disappointing season, and the opener for the coming season was a game in Norman, OK. During 2-a-days, the Seniors went to GMFP and said, "Our kickoff time is noon. Can we practice at noon so we're prepared?" Dedication.
It's that kind of dedication that gets one on the Academic list. While this is an individual thing, it does rub off on teammates. Especially so when the guy leading the pack is a team leader in other areas as well. Success begats success.
