Zellers is a 6-1, 247, redshirt Sophomore defensive lineman from Scottsdale, AZ. His one line bio on the official site certainly doesn't reflect how important Zellers was to the team last year. He stepped in when an already thin D-line lost Worthy for a couple games for an injury and ended up starting 6 games at nose tackle and becoming Scooby's bodyguard.
He had 13 tackles on the year (5 in the win over Oregon), but his big contribution was tying up the line and giving room for Scooby and others to make the plays. His tenacity, effort, and grit resulted in him earning a scholarship this past April. I suspect that Zellers is now heavier than his listed weight of 247 (which hasn't changed in a year), but he is still an undersized, underweight, overachieving key part of our defensive line rotation and that makes me a big fan of his. My favorite Zellers play from last year - the goal line stand against the scummies.
93 is also the Arizona record for the most receptions in a season set by Bobby Wade in 2002.
