Jack Schmelzinger


Jack is a senior from Orchard Park, NY studying journalism and economics. He started writing for TMS in the fall of 2020, and he became the sports editor spring 2021. He's a big Buffalo sports and New York Yankees fan, which at least partially explains his generally pessimistic attitude.

After we hung up, I went right back into the system and changed my major back.

‘I’m getting better every day’: Brett Gabbert talks recovery after season-ending injury

Down 21-10 in their biggest game of the season to this point, the Miami RedHawks are two yards away from punching into the end zone to cut the University of Toledo lead under a touchdown. Star junior quarterback Brett Gabbert smacks his hands together, and before the snap even hits them, he’s moving toward the end zone. He doesn’t make it a yard before he meets the Toledo defense.
