The big man with the big smile was fun to write about, and I'm looking forward to watching him in the NFL this season.
I would like to clarify for anyone wondering, this isn't a countdown of the best player that wore each number at Tech. I am simply writing about one player each day that correlates with days to kickoff. If they happened to be the best player that wore that number then so be it, but that's not always going to be the case. Especially with so many lower numbers coming up, a lot of great players will get left out. I'm not saying any one of them is better than the other, just the player I chose to write about for this countdown.
I know Darren Waller was also an option here but went with the recency bias with Zeek.
