Continuing our ballots for the 2022 College Football Awards. If you missed one:
SEC Offensive Player of the Year
Herndon Hooker, QB Tennessee
It’s hard to argue with the impact that was had by the super-super Senior portal import out of Virginia Tech — and his production in Knoxville, once given an offense to flourish in, is all the more damning indictment of Justin Fuente’s time with the Hokies.
We think of the Vols’ offense as one that slings it all over the yard, 45-50 times a game. It’s not. It doesn’t have to be and part of the reason is because Hooker has been so good.
