John Metchie III and Brian Robinson, Jr. Make Preseason Watchlist
Alabama s John Metchie III and Brian Robinson Jr., both important veterans in the Tide offense, have been named to the Maxwell Award Preseason Watchlist. Each season, the Maxwell Award is given to the College Football Player of the Year, as decided by a panel of sportswriters, casters and coaches.
Metchie and Robinson are two of 80 preseason watchlist candidates and both have the chance to become the fifth player in program history to take home the prestigious trophy.
Most recently, DeVonta Smith took home the award in 2020, adding another accolade to his lineup of accomplishments, but before that, Tua Tagovailoa (2018), Derrick Henry (2015) and AJ McCarron (2013) took home the hardware for the Tide.
