The award is given by the Davey O’Brien Foundation to honor the nation’s top quarterback based on performance on the field, in the classroom, and as a team player who displays leadership, character, and sportsmanship. Leonard started seven games, including the Tribe’s final six as a redshirt freshman in 2006, passing for 1,321 yards with eight touchdowns. He added 331 rushing yards on the season with a pair of touchdowns. “Obviously, we are very pleased with Corey being placed on the Watch List,” said ASU head coach Steve Roberts. “He had a tremendous end to his freshman year, and played very well in a lot of games. Obviously, people saw enough in him and his production to place him on that list, and it is certainly an honor for him and our program.” The Watch List is based on All-America teams and Honorable Mentions published in at least six different preseason college football magazines.
