QB J.T. Barrett (B1G FOY, All American, Silver Football Award, 3x B1G QBOY, National Champion)

Crazy stat - This is Barrett's 18th POTC award. Cooks first.

Don't see how JT could have 18 POTC awards since he's only started 13 games and played in 20...maybe eight POTC awards, but not 18.

I think the 18 comes from combining last years 7 offensive player of the week with 10 freshman of the week honors, then adding this weeks nod.

Nope he's just that good

As Dryden pointed out, JT got multiple awards (freshman of the week, offensive player of the week) a lot last year. When I saw the generic POTC acronym, I took it as Player of the Conference, a singular all-encompassing award you can only get once a week.

Part of the confusion likely stems from the fact that there is no "POTC" or "Player of the Conference" award to begin with.

Yeah, I was a combination of his freshman 7, along with his national and conference honors the last season and a half.

It was a typo. Meant to say "POTW" (Player of the Week).

The Freshman 7 was a record if I do remember correctly.

So, this kid JT is pretty good, then, no?

 

[Saw31]

How many BAMF's did he win last year? Gotta count those too...

He good. He real good.

Actually there is. Tom Herman found it when he recruited J.T. Barrett.

I gave him one for each win and two for Sparty and two for scUM because, you know, fuck michigan.

Whatever the number, it's a little misleading, because, like H&G said, it's possible to get more than one per game. Plus, and along those same lines, more than one player can win it each game. For instance, I'd give at least 5 to Cardale Jones and another 10 to Zeke for the last 3 games of last year. It seems like a lot to give out, because it IS a lot. That's what happens when you go into the heart of the south and take all of their BAMF's before they can be properly awarded, and leave them crying for their mommies when we're done.

Hahah that was awesome... you could tell he worked extra hard all year and this was the motivation he needed.
