Michigan center David Molk named to Rimington Trophy Watch List
Michigan center David Molk was one of 42 players to be named to the Rimington Trophy preseason watch list on Thursday.
It's the third straight year Molk has started the season on the list.
Molk was a finalist for the award a year ago after starting every game for Michigan and being named All-Big Ten first team. A starter for three seasons, he has played 29 games at center for the Wolverines.
Six Big Ten players were named to the list: Ohio State senior Mike Brewster, Northwestern senior Ben Burkett, Nebraska senior Mike Caputo, Iowa junior James Ferentz, Wisconsin redshirt junior Peter Konz and Molk.
The trophy will be giving out Jan. 14, 2012 in Lincoln, Neb.
