Do they name their "All Conference" teams today?

Will be kind of funny to see how that spills out - there are probably 8 RB who would merit consideration, and maybe 1 QB (and even he, Stroud, had a relatively down year, given his track record and weapons).
Would be nice to see Singleton crack into the upper echelon of the Big10, though I could see him being 3rd/4th team - and not really having much of an argument relative to the guys above him (though most any team would be just fine with any of 7 or 8 Big10 backs). Never seen a conference so dominated by RB talent.

Singleton: 160 plays, 1026 yards, 6.4 avg, 11 TDs
Allen: 173 plays, 1002 yards, 5.8 avg, 10 TDs

Whoever on the coaching staff that spread the wealth so evenly this season did a great job. Kudos to them. It can be tough juggling two talents like that at once.

Really exciting to see both guys excel in their Freshman seasons. With a recent history of strong RB products, this has to bode well for future RB recruiting.

With Singleton selected as BIG Freshman POY I thought I'd open it up for discussion on this board?

I don't get it - what about Allar? We're talking backup QB afterall.

I don’t think he is eligible to declare next season. I’m pretty sure the NCAA requires football players be on a college roster for 3 years to be eligible for the NFL draft.
Three years after high school class graduates. This distinction came into play with Freiermuth, I believe.

It's not the NCAA. I believe the NFL requires a minimum of three years otu of high school before declaring. You can go to an NAIA school, you can go the JC route and one year away, or simply not attend college at all. As long as you are 3 years out of high school,.

This is not a surprise. A great honor for Mr. Singleton. Now, if only MY can do a better job of using Nick in space (like the sideline pass TD against MSU) instead of trying to run those ridiculous right tackle runs in short yardage situations.
