Congrats to all.
Looking at the EWU release and noticed that since 2001 we have had a player win the MVP in all but 4 years! :nod: :thumb: :clap:
 
Gubrud, Kupp share Big Sky Offensive MVP, UND's Reyes wins Defensive MVP; MSU's Murray earns top freshman

After only having three defensive players on the All BSC team last year, only one being first team, this year, we tie with a total of five, FOUR OF WHICH ARE 1ST TEAM!!!

EWU's had more first team defense than first team offense!

EWU tied UND for the most players on the 1st - 3rd team defense with five, leading all of the BSC.

Always glad to our us win awards for offense, and hats off to Gage and Cooper for pulling in the BSC's first shared OPY award from players on the same team! But, I am extremely pumped to see the recognition the defense has received this year at the conference level.

It's crazy that we had two WR's on the first team and another on the second team.

I don't know how they finished, but at one point Kupp, Shaq, and Bourne were the top 3 WR's in the Big Sky. That's ridiculous!
 
Eastern players have now been selected as the Big Sky Conference Offensive MVP in 12 of the last 16 seasons, including six of the last seven.

If Nzuzi catches one third of the balls he was in a position too, he's first team defense too. How was Fettig overlooked? Always next year :-) Fantastic season so far; let's finish strong.
 
Congrats to all those honored. Very impressed that three of our "inexperienced" offensive lineman were included! Obviously great work by the players, and great coaching to help them reach their potential.
 
I'm a little surprised D'londo Tucker didn't get some kind of recognition. I think he's had a strong year. Did he miss some games I'm not remembering?

On a completely separate note, is Terrace Grady redshirting this year? I assume so, as I've seen him in street clothes on the sidelines a few times.

To All,
There are three Players up for the above, we have two of the three. Kupp and Gubrud. Don't know if most of you heard it on the Monday Sports news. Good luck to Both. Vic Wallace
