Olsen got robbed!!!

 

[phatcat]

Shows how impressive the 7 win season is. No well known stars. I think Coco is our best player and he gets a single mention.

Perhaps these young men should come back for another year to improve their draft stock 😀

 

[Catreporter]

Mueller had a heckuva year. Might have deserved more recognition.

 

[NUCat320]

I expected Hollis to get a vote or two.
The linebackers are spectacular.

GO CATS GO CATS GO

All the awards will have to be renamed. Here’s hoping ‘Harrington’ gets added to the QB award and ‘Simpson’ to the RB award.

Well he missed that 45 yarder SAT

This is true. Came on very strong the last half of the season.

This is true. Came on very strong the last half of the season.

Late surge might have cost him, coaches not necessarily watching anymore.

 

[techtim72]

Late surge might have cost him, coaches not necessarily watching anymore.

Truthfully he looked like the better player compared to Gallagher but they both deserved recognition.

 

[phatcat]

Well he missed that 45 yarder SAT

He missed a 38 yarder v PU. I looked away for a moment and missed whether it was a bad snap, hold, or kick

 

[CoralSpringsCat]

Well he missed that 45 yarder SAT

Thanks for the reminder. How many did he make?

 

[epicbret]

Truthfully he looked like the better player compared to Gallagher but they both deserved recognition.

Agreed

 

[TheC]

Amazing... the same two LBs who looked so lost last year. Coaching matters!

 

[Hungry Jack]

Pretty shocked Hollis didn’t get a measly HM

 

[phatcat]

Thanks for the reminder. How many did he make?

You know, Cappy could probably set you up an autoreply so you can just put "your post sucks" on all of mine. Would save you some trouble.

Olsen is my second favorite player, after Coco

 

[RevCat]

Truthfully he looked like the better player compared to Gallagher but they both deserved recognition.

Mueller's play was really superlative the last 4 games. Some of the best backer play I've seen in a long long time at NU.

 

[RevCat]

Pretty shocked Hollis didn’t get a measly HM

Great point. It's been a long time since I've been this confident in an NU defensive backfield. Hollis was a huge part of that.

He was playing out of his mind
