Aside from being announced in the starting lineup each week, football fans haven’t heard Mitch Hyatt’s name called much this year. But after his impressive performance against Florida State, the true freshman left tackle was named ACC Lineman of the Week. Normally the names of linemen are only mentioned following penalties and mistakes, so Hyatt recognizes the significance of this honor.
“If your name isn’t mentioned you must be doing something right,” he said. “This means a lot.”
However, Hyatt is staying humble and recognizes that the award also says something about the team that surrounds him.
