TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Record-setting Texas A&M wide receiver Jeff Fuller was named one of 10 semifinalists for the 2010 Biletnikoff Award, which is given annually to the top wide receiver in college football, the Tallahassee Quarterback Club Foundation announced.
Fuller, a junior from McKinney Boyd HS, has been one of the nation's top big-play receivers in 2010 as evidenced by his one-handed, highlight reel grab last week against Baylor on national television.
The 6-foot-4, 215-pound Fuller has already broken a host of season and career receiving records at Texas A&M, and he's within four catches of matching the school's season record of 65 catches that was set by Rod Bernstine in 1986.
For the 2010 season, Fuller has grabbed 61 receptions for 923 yards and 11 touchdowns, which are already season school records. Fuller also broke the Aggies' 42-year old career receiving touchdowns record earlier this season and has increased the record to 27. Last week, Fuller caught a pass in his 30th straight game, which is every game of his career and broke the school record of 29 set by current Dallas Cowboy tight end Martellus Bennett from 2005-07.
Fuller joins fellow Big 12 wideouts Justin Blackmon of Oklahoma State and Ryan Broyles of Oklahoma on the list. Rounding out the semifinalists are: Randall Cobb of Kentucky, A.J. Green of Georgia, Alshon Jeffery of South Carolina, Julio Jones of Alabama, Aldrick Robinson of SMU, Greg Salas of Hawaii and Jordan White of Western Michigan.
