One of the bittersweet things about being a college football fan is the inevitability of saying goodbye to some of your favorite players at the end of every season. It is, of course, entirely a good thing that players like Jeremiah Owusu-Koromoah and Liam Eichenberg are moving on to bigger and better things, but there is still a sadness in knowing that we will never again get to see them suit up in an Irish uniform.
The upside of this is that every year provides a new opportunity to meet new players, watch them develop and grow on the field and come together as a unit.
