MONROE, La. – ULM junior quarterback Caleb Evans, who accounted for 3,447 yards total offense and 30 touchdowns last season, has been named to the 2018 Maxwell Award Watch List, according to an announcement made Monday, July 16 by the Maxwell Football Club. The Maxwell Award has been presented to college football's player of the year since 1937.
Evans joins two other Sun Belt players – Arkansas State quarterback Justice Hansen and Appalachian State running back Jalin Moore – on the 85-player watch list.
"Caleb Evans made great progress during spring practice, especially in terms of his decision making in the pocket and his knowledge of the playbook," ULM head coach Matt Viator said.
