Players and Watson raving about Lee!!

[ray233]

Very good article, i enjoyed reading it. However there is now one thing that worries me a little bit.

Pelini's and Hickam's reference to Zac's cockiness, in my experience with cocky QB's they can get a little gun-ho and make mistakes. Big ones in big games. I hope for our sake, they exaggerate or Zac can keep his cockiness on and off the field.

Then again, Eric Crouch was cocky.

Unless a guy is winning games all by himself, I don't think Pelini and Watson would stand for the common results of genuine cockiness. Alienation of teammates, inconsistent leadership (that wanes the second he takes an ego hit), a me-first agenda, etc.

You see it all of the time, cocky QB's don't like to check down. Cockiness in the pocket equals turnovers.

Offensive turnovers equals :madash for Pelini.

So far, I see this coaching staff placing a premium on humility and hard work.

i will reserve my thoughts/comments until i see him perform in a few games. i like preseason hype as much as anyone else, but that really is all we are getting right now...good luck to Zac.

:yeah

However, please pass the :koolaid2: just the same, and keep it coming. There is nothing sadder than an empty :koolaid2: glass.

When I think cocky, I think Tommie Frazier and we all know how that story ends.

or a series of dismal coaching stints, ending in massive player fallout at Doane?
