New Award Announced: Paul Hornung Award

This morning at 11:00 AM EST -- the "watch list" for college football's newest award; the Paul Hornung Award, will be announced. The Paul Hornung Award is named after former Notre Dame 1956 Heisman Trophy Winner, Paul Hornung. The award will be given to the football player "who finds the most ways to help his team win this season." Hornung, known as "The Golden Boy," is one of the best "all around athletes" to ever play the game; he was a quarterback, running back, safety and place kicker throughout his Hall of Fame career. Voting for the first Paul Hornung Award winner will take place "after" the BCS Bowl Championship and will be awarded by one of Hornung's teammates with the Green Bay Packers; Bart Starr.
