This time of year we see the various watchlists trim their, well, lists to narrow down the field of who is going to win said award. The Broncos had their own laundry list of athletes that were on the early going lists. Boise State Senior QB Brett Rypien being at the forefront.
One of the major lists Mr. Rypien was on was the Maxwell Award for the College Player of the Year.
Today the Maxwell had to trim their list to the semifinalists.
Two names you will notice. One for being absent and another for being present.
