2022 JERRY RICE AWARD WINNER: QB Gevani McCoy, Idaho,...One of the key aspects of the University of Idaho entering the 2022 season with a freshman starting quarterback was Gevani McCoy's reactions after plays. They were often the same whether the result of a play was positive or negative for the Vandals. McCoy's even-keel demeanor at football's most-important position was as pivotal as the production he supplied during Idaho's surprising run to the FCS playoffs. It all combined into the redshirt freshman becoming a runaway winner among 25 finalists for the Stats Perform Jerry Rice Award, which is presented to the national freshman of the year in college football's Division I subdivision. A 54-member panel voted on the 12th annual award - named after legendary wide receiver Jerry Rice, who starred at Mississippi Valley State as part of his Hall of Fame career - with UAlbany quarterback Reese Poffenbarger finishing second and Saint Francis wide receiver Makai Jackson third. McCoy will be honored at the FCS National Awards banquet on Jan. 7 in Frisco, Texas.

In Idaho's first four seasons after returning to the FCS from the FBS level in 2018, the Vandals did not finish with a winning record, either overall or in the Big Sky Conference. This season, first-year coach Jason Eck and his staff selected the 6-foot, 175-pound McCoy as the starter following a preseason competition, and the decision paid off. After the Vandals opened the campaign with back-to-back competitive losses to FBS opponents, they went on to win at rival Montana and go 7-4, including a 6-2 Big Sky mark and a tie for third place in the 12-team conference. They lost 45-42 at Southeastern Louisiana in the playoffs. McCoy, who played in 11 of the 12 games, threw for at least three touchdowns five times, and he set the Vandals' single-game record for completion percentage by going 18 of 20 (90 percent) in a win at Northern Arizona. He finished the season 203 of 297 (68.4 percent) for 2,721 yards and a freshman-high 27 touchdowns against seven interceptions with a 170.6 passer rating that ranks fifth in the FCS. He also rushed for three touchdowns and caught one. - STATS FCS Football

10/28/22 - Jordan Magee, rSr/2024, Temple, 6-1, 228 (DS#6 OLB) + More +

During the summer prior to Jordan Magee's junior year at Dover High School in Dover, Delaware, the redshirt-sophomore linebacker tore his meniscus in offseason workouts and was unsure of what his playing status would be going forward. "That injury put a lot of stress on me," Magee said. "Thinking back on it now, I feel like it taught me a lot about resilience and how everytime that I get knocked down, to just get back up and just fight with my brothers." Magee established himself as a leader on the Owls' defense, tied for the team lead in tackles with 45, and tied for third on the team in sacks with three. Magee has demonstrated exemplary leadership both on and off the field and was named a single digit recipient by head coach Stan Drayton prior to the season. - Temple-News.com

08/07/22 - Jakari Norwood, rSr/2024, Temple, 5-10, 195 (DS#999 RB) + More +

One of the recent 11 transfer additions at Temple is former Illinois running back Jakari Norwood, who had 27 carries for 120 rushing yards last season. He's still waiting for his paperwork to be cleared but could be joining the Owls any day, according to Drayton. "He's got versatility," Drayton said. "He can catch the ball out of the backfield. He's tough on contact, but he's got the fifth gear...He's a guy that can hit a home run, so something that we felt we needed in that group and I'm hoping that he can bring that." The running back room features returners Edward Saydee, who took the bulk of carries last season, Darvon Hubbard, and Trey Blair. Drayton mentioned that the halfbacks have improved since the spring, when they learned new blocking schemes. - Philadelphia Inquirer
