Maclin repeats as All-American
The Associated Press announced its 2008 All-American team today and Mizzou’s sophomore standout Jeremy Maclin was once again named to the first team as the all-purpose player.
Maclin was a unanimous pick in 2007 for the same position as a freshman.
Tigers senior tight end Chase Coffman joined Maclin on the first team. It’s the second straight year a Tiger tight end was an All-American as Coffman succeeded Martin Rucker from last year’s first team. Both Maclin and Rucker were consensus All-Americans last year.
Tigers junior linebacker Sean Weatherspoon also earned recognition on the AP’s third team. He was joined by Illinois junior cornerback Vontae Davis, the only Illini honored on any of the teams.
STLtoday.com sports producer Neil Joellenbeck, an 11-year veteran of the Post-Dispatch, blogs on what the rest of the nation is saying about STL sports.
What is the real thoughts of Maclin opting for the draft? If he is just going to test the waters I sure hope he doesn’t get an agent.
