HATS OFF TO MAXX!

There is no question that Maxx Williams is one of (if not the) best tight end in the country. And today that fact was recognized once again by the John Mackey Award committee as Maxx was named as a semi-finalist for the award. Here's the full list of semifinalists:

Player Name Class School
E.J. Bibbs Senior Iowa State
Evan Engram Sophomore Mississippi
Ben Koyack Senior Notre Dame
Jimmay Mundine Senior Kansas
Jean Sifrin Junior Massachusetts
Nick O'Leary Senior Florida State
Clive Walford Senior Miami
Maxx Williams RS Sophomore Minnesota

I'll be honest with you, if Maxx doesn't end up as a finalist for the Mackey I'll be pretty frustrated. Like, Adam Wilcox not being a Hobey Finalist frustrated. Why? Well, his numbers are certainly worthy...

...and no other tight end on the list is as important to his team.

Plus, do any of the other nominees have a multiple highlight reel catches, including two from a single game? I'm guessing not.

Oh, and he runs guys over like a semi.

VOTE LOGIC, HIGHLIGHTS, AND STRENGTH.

VOTE MAXX.
