Michale Crabtree: Consensus All-American

by Seth C on Dec 11, 2007 10:12 PM CST in Football Comment 4 comments

Freshman wide receiver sensation Michael Crabtree was named to the Associated Press All-American Team and has now been named to 5, yes that's right 5 All-American teams, which means that he's now a Consensus All-American. In case you're keeping track:

But whatever you do, don't forget that Michael Crabtree, despite the above-referenced accolades, was not the freshman of the year according to the Dallas Morning News.

Yes, I'm still a little bitter.

consensus

Just thought i'd point out that he was a consensus a while back: you only have to be named to 3 of the 5 All-American teams to be considered 'consensus'. Make sense? no, but that's how it works.

They

use that distinction (consensus) because players who are named to all five are called "Unanimous All-American." Gives a special shout-out to those who land on three of the five. Makes sense...
