Firebrands
Xzavier Kirkland returned from a knee and put up 32.7 points.
5,782 yards over nine seasons. Twenty-six touchdowns. 118 games. There was a 1,119-yard year in there. This is not it. He has done it in two buildings.
He turned twenty-nine this year. He is from Chicago, Illinois. Ask anybody: he says almost nothing and is listened to anyway. He was signed off a practice squad in November and never gave the job back.
Firebrands are 2-5 through seven weeks. Brandon Ovenmitt is new.
He keeps his father's work gloves in his locker, and always has.
