Pettigrew from OSU and the TE from Arizona would be good additions. Although I only saw one game of the TE from Az.

Pettigrew was on the watch list back in July.

Out of all of the semi-finalists on the list, Gresham is the only one that wasn't on the pre-season watch list. For whatever reason, they had Eldridge on that list...personally I would have expected them to put Finley on there, except the voters might have been confused seeing both Jermichael Finley and Joe Jon Finley on the list.

Also, in my opinion, unless Gresham has a huge game on Saturday, I'd expect Coffman, Rucker, and Beckum to be the finalists, and either Coffman or Rucker to win it.

It's because Chuck Long finally listened to the fans and called "touchdown tight end". :D

I'm very happy that Gresh made the semi-final list. Wild that Mizzou has both TEs on the list. Can't say I disagree that they deserve to be there, but wow.

Wait. Wasn't Eldridge on that list? I would have thought Finley over him, except the voters might have been confused seeing both Jermichael Finley and Joe Jon Finley on the list.

See what happens when you call that play instead of "incomplete pass to tight end"!!!!:mad:

"Leading touchdown receiveing." No way he compares yardage-wise to the Tight ends-slash-wideouts at places like Missouri.

Just goes to show that Chase Daniel has the field vision of a chronic masturbator.

Actual finalists.

Travis Beckum - Wisconsin

Amazing that they have the big XII second team TE on the finalist list, rather than the first teamer. :rolleyes:
