The 2022 Football Scoop Coaches Awards Presented by AstroTurf
The backbone of college football remains its coaches. AstroTurf is honored to announce the winners of the 2022 FootballScoop Coaches of the Year awards presented by AstroTurf. These awards are the only set of awards that recognize the most outstanding position coaches in college football.
DALTON, Ga., Jan. 30, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The more things change in the world of college football, the more things stay the same.
With terms like “NIL,” “transfer portal,” and “conference realignment” continuing to capture headlines, the Georgia Bulldogs put an exclamation on back-to-back championships with a perfect 15-0 season.
This marked the first time in the playoff era that a team won back-to-back championships.
Still, the backbone of college football remains its coaches. And we are honored to announce the winners of the 2022 FootballScoop Coaches of the Year awards presented by AstroTurf. These awards are the only set of awards that recognize the most outstanding position coaches in college football.
The finalists for each award were selected from nominations by coaches, athletic directors, and athletic director personnel. The prior winners of the award then choose the winner from the list of finalists. If asked, most of the winners will tell you that this award means much more than others because it is chosen by their peers. Now in its 14th year, the FootballScoop Awards presented by AstroTurf has grown into a highly anticipated event within the football coaching profession. Awards are handed out to the winners at a reception during the American Football Coaches Association Convention each year.
