The preseason award lists keep rolling out as we approach the official kickoff of the 2019 Syracuse football season.
Another important Orange player has received the highest offensive line recognition with Airon Servais being named to the Rimington Trophy watch list.
This award has been annually doled out since the turn of the 21st century. Each year the most outstanding center in college football is recognized.
“Servais is one of 80 centers on the watch list, including seven from Atlantic Coast Conference schools,” per the official press release.
Interestingly enough after spending the first two years of his career at center, the coaching staff flexed Airon out to right tackle to start spring practice, per Stephen Bailey of Syracuse.
