Taylor has been a stud considering changing positions to the all new Star and not playing a ton of football. He has been our most consistent effort guy. Love watching him play hard!!!
Second on Lynott.Can’t remember the last time that the winner of the Buffalo Heart Award was such a toss up, this close to the final game.
The seniors are:
— CB Delrick Abrams Jr.
— SN J.T. Bale
— TE Beau Bisharat
— WR Tony Brown
— S Lucas Cooper
— OLB Nu'umotu Falo Jr.
— QB Josh Goldin
— OL Arlington Hambright (graduate student)
— TE Jalen Harris (graduate student)
— P Alex Kinney
— C Tim Lynott Jr.
— QB Steven Montez
— S Mikial Onu (graduate student)
— PK Davis Price
— OL Jack Shutack
— OLB Davion Taylor
Several worthy candidates but I’d cast my vote for Tim Lynott. Dude has battled through some injuries and appears to be a leader on that offensive line.
AbramsJack Shutack. Kid stuck it out here while not on scholarship and has played significant time (roughly 50 plays a game) the 2nd half of the season while Pursell had his Gall Bladder removed (playing approximately 50% more plays during that time than Roddick).
No big threads on him on our boards, which means he did what you want an OL player to do. Not stand out!
All done while paying his own way.
To me, that's the definition of this award.
Viska. You couldn't find a better example of a man playing thru pain and injury to help his team. He was incredible against stanford. almost everyone thought he should be on the bench, but he wouldn't hear it.
He's a sure 1st rounder and him risking injury this way is totally selfless. (okay, i'm running on, but look at all the guys who take their foot off the gas, skip the bowl game, etc. he could easily have said, 'this season is a bust. i'm, going to worry about the nfl')
Believe it has to be a senior thus eliminating Viska
.It does not have to be a senior.
Definitely the motor of a buffalo.TAYLOR is the easiest choice. His background, his development, his effort having to chase everyone down that nobody seems to be able to tackle, and learning another new position, and his durability!!!
Interesting thought!Has Ralphie V been nominated? Too literal?
