Dan LeFevour, Junior, Central MichiganQuarterback, #13, 6'3" - 230 lbs.
LeFevour just may be the first quarterback drafting when he decides to enter the NFL Draft...the kid has size, arm, and speed...he became the second player in I-A history to throw for 3,000 yards and rush for 1,000 in the same season (Vince Young, Texas, 2005)...LeFevour was the first quarterback to lead his team to a Mid-American Conference (MAC) title as a freshman and a sophomore...
In 2006, he was the MAC Freshman of the Year when he threw for 3,056 yards, 26 TDs and 10 Ints...he followed up his freshman year with a banner 2007 as he was named MAC Offensive Player of the Year...he finished with 3,562 yards, 27 TDs, and 13 Ints...
Chippewa head coach Butch Jones had this to say about LeFevour in the Blue Ribbon College Football Yearbook, "Dan has that 'it' factor," Jones said. "You may not be able to define what 'it' is, but you know when someone has that special leadership quality and Dan is clearly a leader, not just on the field, but in the locker room and in the classroom. He can walk into a room and command instant respect."
Interesting note - CMU is pushing LeFevour for the Heisman Trophy...the CMU Marketing Department spent $50,000 to rent a 30-by-60 foot billboard on the back of Comerica Park's scoreboard near the main entrance to Ford Field, where incoming Detroit Tigers and Lions fans can see his photo...LeFevour is an Academic Honrable Mention as he holds a 3.53 GPA...
