Drue Chrisman is already known for being Ohio State's longtime punter and a record-setting water bottle flipper, and now he's also receiving recognition for his excellence in the classroom.
Chrisman was named Thursday as one of 199 semifinalists for the William V. Campbell Trophy, which honors college football's top scholar-athlete.
Already a three-time Academic All-Big Ten selection at Ohio State, Chrisman joins a long list of Buckeyes who have been nominated for the Campbell Trophy including Jordan Fuller, who was one of 12 finalists for the award last year, and two previous winners of the award: Bobby Hoying (1995) and Craig Krenzel (2003).
