Three Tigers - seniors Chase Coffman and Chase Daniel, and sophomore Jeremy Maclin - have been named to the 2008 Maxwell Award Watch List, while a fourth - senior William Moore - has been named to the 2008 Chuck Bednarik Award Watch List.
Daniel was chosen for his outstanding 2007 season, which saw him become a Heisman Trophy finalist (finishing fourth in final voting) after helping lead the Tigers to a 12-2 season that included the school's first-ever Big 12 North Division title, as well as a 38-7 win over Arkansas to claim the 2008 AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic - MU's first New Year's Day bowl victory since 1966. An outstanding student, Daniel was an ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA 1st-Team Academic All-District selection in 2007, as well as being named 1st-Team Academic All-Big 12 for his efforts in the classroom.
