I saw Herzy talking to a bunch of Wake guys after the game the other day. I think Mark is one of those guys that is universally admired and respected by opposing players and coaches alike. From Dabo's $5K, to the Clemson team signing the #94 Clemson jersey for him, to Beamer and the wristbands - setting a $5K goal and bumping it to $9400 because Tech fans bought so many, to this $9400 donation from Bowden, everyone seems to be on board with this. Never seen anything quite like it, and I think the fact that it is Mark that is the spokesman has much to do with it.
Mark Herzlich is the best BC football player I have ever seen, and he is proving to be an even better guy off of the field. And evidently the rest of the ACC thinks the same.
