|
Last year PSU Playbook took fans inside the life of an NFL rookie with Anthony Adams' NFL Rookie Diary, a series where 'Spice' gave us a first hand account of the ups and downs of moving from the collegiate to professional ranks of football. The series was incredibly popular, with several other sites, incuding NFL and San Francisco 49er sites syndicating it for their own fans. We are proud and excited to continue the NFL Rookie Diary series, this time with Nittany Lion fullback Sean McHugh, who is currently a member of the Tennessee Titans.

Meet A Lion Legend: Michael Zordich

I had the rare opportunity to sit down for a one-on-one interview with former Penn State consensus All-American safety Michael Zordich. Michael, who played an impressive 12 years in the NFL after a great career with the Nittany Lions, shared his thoughts on the current team and memories of when he was a PSU. He is an energetic, passionate man who is fantastic to talk with. It is one of the most enjoyable interviews I have ever had the privilege of conducting.
