Congrats, Chris Zorich

Chris Zorich was the first football lineman I knew by name, coming up as a kid, watching those Irish teams of the late 80's. And he was such a MAN. Embodied all the traits of toughness and work ethic, combined with a human integrity that, I believe, set ND apart.
To say nothing of the pathos NDNation felt when news came out of how he returned home to his Chicago home following the bowl game (Orange?) to find his mother had passed away in her chair while watching her son on TV.

Zorich was the prototype.

We need more guys like him now.

And now he's in the College Football Hall of Fame.
