  Eastern Michigan University redshirt freshman Darius Boone Jr. (Tulsa, Okla.-Union) has been named a Doak Walker Award preseason candidate, presented to the top college running back, the PwC SMU Athletic Forum announced Wednesday, July 21. Boone is one of six Mid-American Conference running backs named to the 82-man list. An Academic All-MAC selection in 2020, Boone appeared in and started three games for Eastern during its COVID-shortened campaign. Despite battling injury and different points in the season, he quickly established himself as one of the most explosive players in the Green and White, finishing the season with 44 carries for 254 yards and two touchdowns. - Ann Arbor News

  Senior center Mike Van Hoeven (Paw Paw, Mich.-Paw Paw) was named Second Team CoSIDA Academic-All America on Monday, July 12, making him just the third football player in Eastern Michigan University history to be an Academic All-American. The previous Academic All-American were Corey Annett grabbing second team honors in 2001 and Cy Maughmer adding second team accolades in 2013. EMU was one of just three Mid-American Conference programs to have a representative on the all-american teams.

Van Hoeven - who was also CoSIDA Academic All-District in 2018 and 2019 - is the first Eastern Michigan football student-athlete to be recognized three times in a career. Dubbed "one of the hardest working men" on the team by Head Coach Chris Creighton, Van Hoeven played an important role in the EMU offense in 2020. Named to the Rimington Trophy watch list, the award given annually to the nation's best center, Van Hoeven started all six games for the Green and White as the team's center. - Ann Arbor News

  2020 ALL-MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE THIRD TEAM (COACHES): Down Lineman - Jose Ramirez, Eastern Michigan,...The final All-MAC selection for EMU in 2020 is Ramirez, who burst onto the scene in the abbreviated season. Ramirez appeared in each of EMU's six games in 2020, and notched his first-career tackle against Kent State, Nov. 4. He recorded at least two tackles in every appearance in 2020. Ramirez's breakout game came at Western Michigan, Dec. 5, where he set personal bests in tackles (7), tackles-for-loss (2.0), sacks (2.0), and forced fumbles (1.0).

Each number in the previous categories, with the exception of his total tackles, led or tied for the team lead against Western. Ramirez was an anchor for the EMU defense that held Western Michigan's D'Wayne Eskridge, the nation's leader in all-purpose yards coming into the game (255 yards per game average) to a season-low 99 yards. The game was Eskridge's first without at least 230 all-purpose yards. Additionally, his kick return yards (30) and receiving yards (53) against EMU were season lows. The Lake Alfred, Fla. native collected MAC West Defensive Player of the Week honors for his performance. - Eastern Michigan Football

  2020 ALL-MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE THIRD TEAM (COACHES): Wide Receiver - Hassan Beydoun, Eastern Michigan,...Rounding out the offensive honorees for EMU is Beydoun, who reminded everyone that just because one starts his career as a walk-on, it does not mean he can't be great. In fact, he is a 2020 nominee for the Burlsworth Trophy, which is awarded to the nation's best player who began his career as a walk-on. Beydoun Holds the EMU standard for receptions/game in a season at 8.0, bettering Kenny Christian's mark of 7.8 set in 2000. He had a team-best 40 receptions for 508 yards in five games this season, and finished ranked second in the MAC and eighth nationally in receptions per game (8.0).

The Dearborn, Mich. native was fifth in the league and 20th nationally in receiving yards per game (101.6), and caught at least seven balls in every game this season. He posted nine catches for 112 yards against Kent State, Nov. 4, and followed it up by again hitting the century mark against Central Michigan, Nov. 27. Beydoun finished the season with a team-best three 100+ yard receiving performances, and now has four such games in his career. His four 100+ yard performances tie for third-best in program history. Additionally, he is one of just seven players in the 129-year history of the program to record at least four games in that category. - Eastern Michigan Football

  2020 ALL-MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE SECOND TEAM (COACHES): Inside Linebacker - Terry Myrick, Eastern Michigan,...One of EMU's defensive leaders, Myrick put together his best season in the Green and White in 2020. The Greater Atlanta product started all six games as a linebacker for EMU, and finished first on the team with 67 total tackles, including 24 solo stops and 43 assists. He also led the team with 5.5 tackles-for-loss and two fumble recoveries. His two pass break-ups were good for second-best of any player on the team. Myrick also added a pair of fumble recoveries, the first two of his career, which was the best effort by any player in the league, and ninth best total in the nation. He finished fourth in the MAC and 11th nationally with an 11.2 tackles per game average, and led EMU in total tackles in four of six games during the 2020 campaign, where he recorded at least 10 stops in each. - Eastern Michigan Football

  2020 ALL-MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE FIRST TEAM (COACHES): Defensive Back - Noski LaFleur, Eastern Michigan,...After seeing action in all 13 contests a season ago, LaFleur emerged as the team's starting safety in 2020. A consistent force for the defense that finished as the seventh-best red zone stop specialists in the nation, he was able to record multiple tackles in each contest. His best performance came in the form of an 11-stop day, a career-high, versus Central Michigan, Nov. 27. The Lake Charles, La. native notched his second-career interception in EMU's season-opener at Kent State, Nov. 4, and added a pick for the second consecutive week against Ball State, Nov. 11, a play in which he also recorded a career-long 54-yard return. LaFleur's interceptions in back-to-back contests marked the first time that accomplishment has been recorded by an Eagle since Brody Hoying notched three picks in two weeks against NIU, and Kent State, respectively (weeks 11&12), in 2019. LaFleur finished tied for second in the MAC with two interceptions, but led the conference in return yardage off interceptions (97 yards). - Eastern Michigan Football

  2020 ALL-MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE THIRD TEAM (COACHES): Offensive Lineman - Sidy Sow, Eastern Michigan,...A fixture in both EMU's run blocking and pass protection efforts, Sow was impressive in this, his junior season with the Green and White. He started all six games for Eastern Michigan at the left guard position, and helped spur an EMU rushing attack that saw seven different Eagles record multiple attempts on the ground en route to 776 total yards and 11 of EMU's 23 offensive touchdowns in 2020. Sow was also responsible for the protection of QB Preston Hutchinson, who racked up better than 1,600 yards through the air in just six games and scored eight TDs of his own on the ground. - Eastern Michigan Football

  2020 ALL-MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE SECOND TEAM (COACHES): Down Lineman - Turan Rush, Eastern Michigan,...A first-year captain for Eastern Michigan, Rush established himself as one of the most dangerous pass rushers in the MAC in 2020. The West Virginia native finished sixth in the MAC and 32nd in the FBS in sacks at 0.75 per game, and had a season-best two sacks and six tackles against MAC West Division champion Ball State, Nov. 11.

  Senior punter Jake Julien is in the midst of an outstanding career. Already in the EMU record books for his 43.8 yards per punt season average in 2019-20, the Barrie, Ontario native has been just as impressive this season. His most notable stat, however, is this: In 13 total punt attempts this year, opponents have returned for a total of -0.5 yards. That number is second in the MAC and fifth nationally. - Ann Arbor News

  Whenever Michigan State gets back on the football field, there will be plenty of new faces contributing for the Spartans' defense. Eight starters were lost from a year ago, creating plenty of holes from the interior of the line to the back end of the secondary. And right in the middle, at linebacker, Michigan State will be forced to replace some highly productive players with Joe Bachie off to the NFL and Tyriq Thompson graduated. Even with Bachie missing the final five games, the tandem combined for 146 tackles last season and over the course of the previous four years, piled up 408 stops with Bachie starting 34 of 40 career games and Thompson starting 25 of 48.

That's a significant void for linebackers coach Ross Els to fill, a task made at least a bit easier due to the presence of senior Antjuan Simmons. The versatile team leader can play just about anywhere, but even in Michigan State's limited workouts throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, there is one player who is standing out. "As far as young guys, Chase Kline has really made huge improvements," Simmons said. "He had a good fall camp with all the workouts. He's really looking like a dude for us, looking like he's going to be a guy for us." It's high praise coming from Simmons, who hasn't missed a game in his three seasons with the Spartans and can play any linebacker position. An outside backer by trade, Simmons helped fill in last season when Bachie was suspended and helped hold the position group together, doing his best to help some of the younger players like Kline, Jeslord Boateng and Noah Harvey progress quickly. - Detroit News
