Grand Valley State, who boasts the winningest program in Division II football history (73% winning percentage), has had an outstanding seven months or so.
Back in December they made a run to the national semifinals of the Division II playoff, capping off a nice 12-2 season, and then in April they released a nice graphic that we highlighted that proves that sometimes the simplest of things send the most powerful message.
Well their coaches and video guys have been putting in some solid hours from the looks of it, because they've also released a hype video that, quite literally, has it all.
This one has a nice balance of offense, defense, and special teams highlights, as well as a healthy dose of uniforms combinations, and if you pay close enough attention, you'll see the type of depth that they have to work with in Allendale, as various running backs and receivers flash on the screen making highlight worthy plays.
The expectations have been high every year at GVSU, dating back to when Brian Kelly was in town as the head coach winning back to back national titles in 2002 and 2003, but the excitement in the air for head coach Matt Mitchell and his staff going into this year is certainly comparable to those glory days of not so long ago.
