I always like Zach. He played with a lot of heart. I'm happy he's having success coaching and I hope he continues moving upward.

"I hope he continues moving upward.".... continues? He went from an analyst at Bama to an assistant high school coach.

Mett had two NFL-caliber OTs starting in that 2013 loss to Alabama: La'el Collins and Jerald Hawkins.

I loved that kid. He was so scrappy. Played up to the talent of his receivers when here and was very tough. Congrats to him for finding a way to stay in football.

If Mills doesn’t blow the coverage on Yeldon, Zach would have beaten Bama in ‘12

You are correct, typical miles overly conservative decision against gumps. A First Down wins that game. You can never give a NS team the ball back late in game, never

He looks like all these dudes that get sleeves just to try and look cool. It doesn't fit him at all.

At least the high school colors include purple. I would have hated to see him wear a crimson shirt hanging out with sabab

Looks like the guy that showed up to check my REV Cable connection.

Those tats are awful. He made it through college and then said he would tat everything. That’s really unbelievable.

Wait until these chodes notice the cargo pants. Then poor Zach is toast on the OT.

When you go through the life he lived, some people don’t know how to use words so they get tats. His college life, then nfl, his dad committed suicide… it’s a lot.
