[NU Sports] 2011

[Scott Zeller]

One thing you might all appreciate about next year: Persa already had his
walking boot off in Dallas -- a month ahead of schedule! The guy is
recovering like Wolverine. He is expected to be at full strength for spring
practice. He looked great walking around on the sidelines, almost like he
was ready to go in.
