USC football’s JT Daniels named to Maxwell Award watch list

It’s that time of year, when watch lists herald the ever nearing start to the college football season. On Monday, the Maxwell Award released their watch list for 2019, with USC football represented by quarterback JT Daniels.

Daniels is still in the middle of a quarterback battle to keep his starting place from 2018. That of course is not reason for the Maxwell to put him on their watch list. He is, after all, the favorite to win the job once more and USC’s starting quarterback just about always makes the preseason watch list for an award seeking college football’s Player of the Year.
