Congratulations Adam 🏒🏆
Go Blue!!!
Awesome. Deserved.
It’s a small consolation, but it still matters.
YEAH!
Ok great. I don’t have to be mad about this again
Maybe an opportunity to be the first two time winner… Whaddya say adam?
Sounds like a great idea.
But I’d settle for one time winner with a national title next season.
Now I just need to find an autographed 8x10 photo of him to hang on my Michigan/Detroit sports wall.
He an Brendan Morrison are now the only Hobey Baker / Heisman / Naismith / Golden Spikes winners that I do not have. Brendan Morrison has eluded me for years (a billion bonus points to anyone that can find one for me....wearing a Michigan jersey or posing with the trophy....no NHL jerseys allowed).
Well deserved. Go Blue!!!
Congratulations to Adam Fantilli
Now, I want to see if you can win it again next season.
If not him, I would be fine with his brother winning it next year. Probably nowhere near the most likely pick on the team to do it, but I won't complain if he pulls it off.
That's pretty cool. Congrats, Adam. Hope you have a great pro career in a cool city.
Hail yes! Congrats to Adam.
One more year?
FANtastic news! The committee did the right thing and awarded the correct player with the award.
Awesome! Best player this year won the award. Glad the committee made the right choice.
Congratulations Adam, well deserved, and another part of a great year.
First the Hodge, now the Hobey.
Heisman is next
Shouldn’t forget the Outland. Technically not the absolute “best” player in football, but a center is never going to win the Heisman.
Run it back
He is on another level. I get McDavid vibes the way he attacks the offensive zone.
**I am not saying that Adam Fantilli = Connor McDavid
Well deserved!
Bout time
