249
986
93
Offense:
O'Brien (QB) - Banks (02)
Doak (RB) - Greene (08)
Biletnikoff (WR) - Have we even had a semifinalist?
Mackey (TE) - Clark (02) & Hockenson (18)
Moore (OL) - Croston, Boettger, Myers, Welsh, Daniels (16)
Rimington (C) - Linderbaum (21)
Outland (Lineman) - Gallery (03) & Scherff (14)
Other: AP National POY - Banks (02)

Defense/ST:
Butkus (LB) - 0 (Jewell did win the less publicized Jack Lambert in 2016)
Thorpe (CB) - King (15); King & Jackson (17) also won the less publicized Tatum Award
Bednarik (DPOY) - 0 (Believe we've had numerous finalists but can't find anything on past 2nd and 3rd place)
Nagurski (DOPY) - 0 (Same as Bednarik)
LOTT (DPOY) - Jewell (16)
Groza (K) - Kaeding (02) & Duncan (19) ;)
Guy (P) - 0 (Probably the biggest black mark on the #PuntingIsWinning coach)
Burlsworth (Walk on) - 0 (but as the walkon safety thread has shown, we certainly don't lack here)

So really, the BIG ones he's missed on completely on all the versions of a national award are only the WR and Punter.

Other:
Disney Spirit - The Wave (17)
Broyles (Asst Coach) - 0 (But we all know Phil deserves some sort of lifetime achievement award like Fitzpatrick got over Jackson for the Thorpe)
AP Coach of Year: 2002
Walter Camp Coach of Year: 2002
Basically every Coach of Year award: 2015
