#the one where he’s a grad student qb using his last year of eligibility and getting a masters degree in sports psych

STOP. IT.

That is the backwards baseball cap of a man who entered the transfer portal and made it an entire nation’s problem! Everyone is frantically googling “Jake seresin age” on Saturday afternoons and heaving sighs of relief when google says 24. Meanwhile, the other three people randomly assigned to his group project in Applied Research are ready to murder him for varying reasons (Rooster: harboring a grudge over something Jake said when they were the only two on campus for the summer session; Bob: scheduling their meetings around eight million hours of football practice is annoying and he suspects Jake is making it harder just to annoy Rooster; Phoenix: refusing to carry this entire team on her back while refusing to relinquish any control and also mad that Jake’s face has the nerve to look like that. She will meet him in the library at eleven pm on Sunday if that’s what it takes to get him to finish his slides and she will not feel bad about how exhausted he looks when he shows up ten minutes late but surprisingly prepared) even as the rest of the campus asks the most important question: will they make the CFP for the first time since its inception? “I don’t know, man,” Seresin says in a post-game interview, “right now I’m shifting focus to the presentation I have to give Tuesday. I can’t let that team down, either.” It is not charming at all, Natasha is not affected by it or the two million gifs people make after he winks at the camera, his eye black crooked and his smile devastatingly bright.
