Mine would be Danny Wuerffel. He was a great person on and off the field. Plus he had a life time record vs Peyton Manning of 5-0.

For the baseball crowd, I can’t help but pull for Tim Elko. The most likable Rebel of all time.

I really enjoyed watching him too even though he was playing while I was in school and he was played them every year back then.

Stand Together Foundation, in partnership with former Alabama standout and NFL legend Shaun Alexander today announced its title sponsorship of a series of college football awards honoring the nation's top freshman student-athletes. Highlights include the Shaun Alexander Freshman Player of the Year Award along with two other Shaun Alexander Awards recognizing inspirational and breakout performances by freshman student-athletes.

"Shaun's legacy in the sports world is only matched by the legacy he's building as a dedicated social entrepreneur working with the most effective nonprofits across the country to help people in poverty to transform their lives," said the executive director of Stand Together Foundation. "We are thrilled to team with Shaun and the FWAA to sponsor these awards recognizing the top freshman who are looking to follow in Shaun's footsteps to fulfill their own potential -- not just in athletics but also as drivers of positive transformation in communities."

Alexander burst on to the college football scene as a freshman with a record-setting 291-yard, four-touchdown performance in Alabama's 26-0 victory over rival LSU in 1996. He later went on to a standout career in the NFL, earning MVP honors in 2005 after setting a then single-season record for touchdowns while also leading the league in rushing.

Shaq

I honestly am not sure you could find a better role model than Shaq, and even more impressively, he does a lot of his philanthropy behind the scenes, away from cameras.

Tim Tebow seems like a pretty solid option here.

Shaun is a great choice. A person who coached him told me he’s the only person on the Bama team who left with the same car he arrived in

The guy who just had all of his charges dropped because it was an obvious money grab? I doubt it but you should have chosen someone else

Having met him a few times he really is genuine. Like a big kid. He used to buy an 18 wheeler trailer full of gifts for kids at one time.

Rodney Thomas



quote:

When Rodney Thomas was at Texas A&M in 1994, he was the recipient of the Aggie Heart Award. The award, voted on by teammates, is presented to a senior who completed his eligibility and shows effort, desire, determination, competitiveness, leadership, and courage. The award is the highest honor for an A&M senior player.

According to Sports Illustrated, when Thomas was a student at Texas A&M, there was a malfunction in a vending machine in the athletic dorms. Because of the malfunction, cans of soda were dispensed without cash being inserted into the machine. Thomas, hardly made of money, took his own change and replaced all the money for the drinks that had been taken.
