The GB microphones find Nicolet yet again

Sorry for exiting the virtual world for a few days — but that's what will happen when the hugs and laughter of my grandparents from Ohio and uncle from Northern California replace the love I have for my MAC.

While I was out though, Andy Losik found a small gem of a video, with none other than Mark Nicolet as the subject, a Charger alum I've been following a lot as of late.

WLUK-TV 11 in Green Bay put together a 90-second video briefly discussing the QB battle between Niolet and Gino Guidugli. As it turns out Guidugli returned from injury to throw for 326 yards and five touchdowns in a 46-41 home loss to Iowa on Friday, but he didn't throw an interception and had a stellar second half.

Nonetheless, as this video shows Nicolet is still putting the heat on Guidugli to perform at a high level because he did lead the Blizzard to win as the starter just over a week ago and a few bad quarters from Guidugli is all it might take for fortunes to be reversed.

Whatever the case may be, it is fantastic to see Nicolet progressing and getting some of the attention deserves. He is an extremely intelligent football player, but more importantly, an incredible young man who focuses on faith, family and football with  ferverent dedication that we could all learn from.
