Another day, another Gopher football preseason player on a national award watch list!
Congrats to @PMortell37 who is one of 25 punters (one of two in the B1G) named to the Ray Guy Award watch list! pic.twitter.com/A0aVVtZNSY

This time the honored Gopher is senior punter Peter Mortell who begins the season with some accolades. Peter is certainly deserving, as he is the returning Eddleman-Fields Punter of the Year in the Big Ten. Peter was also the consensus 1st Team All-Big Ten Punter for both the media and coaches polls. He's started the season on Pre-Season All American lists as well, coming in as the 4th Team selection for Phi Steele and Athlon. And perhaps most importantly...

...dude dominates the bicep curls. I expect he'll start hitting the radar of Heisman voters in short order.
Just give him the award now before he gets angry Ray Guy voters.
