Tebow in Fort Worth for O'Brien Award

This was in yesterday's Dallas Morning News.



Florida's Tim Tebow will be receiving his first Davey O'Brien National Quarterback Award in Fort Worth today.


It may not be his last.


Tebow dominated the major college awards last season, becoming the first sophomore Heisman Trophy winner and also winning the Maxwell and O'Brien awards.


A quarterback with a fullback's mindset, Tebow answered any questions about his ability to throw, finishing second nationally in passing efficiency. He finished with 3,286 yards passing, added 895 yards rushing and accounted for 55 touchdowns in 13 games.


The banquet, which is sold out, begins at 7 p.m. today at the Fort Worth Club. A reception starts at 6 p.m.


Tebow will be joined at the banquet by South Carolina head coach Steve Spurrier, the Legends Award winner.



"I'm looking forward to coming out there," Spurrier, the 1966 Heisman Trophy winner at Florida, said in a voice mail message "I haven't received anything from my playing days in a long while."


Jack Squiers of Irving's Cistercian Preparatory School will be honored as the high school scholarship recipient.
