Z-Man
They're still hyping the 25 second clock like its 15 seconds faster than the NFL.
"We call him Z-Man," says wide receiver Austin Proehl.
Jim Zorn - or Z-Man, if you prefer - is back. And he's loving the excitement around this new team.
"I'm not surprised, just because we've got great fans here," Zorn says. "And I think there's a lot of curiosity."
Fans are tuning in to the new XFL, attracted by the game's pace.
Wide receiver Keenan Reynolds says, "It's quick, fast-paced, takes some getting used to."
For one thing, the play clock is a brisk 25 seconds compared to the NFL's 40.
"Everything has to happen at a faster pace," says defensive tackle Will Sutton.
Everything. Including play-calling from the coach.
"That's really the truth," Zorn says. "It is fast. To think of situation, field position, clock. It's hard. You've got to be right on it."
