Texas Aggies player Jamie McCoy named to Mackey Award watch list


Jamie McCoy, the senior tight-end for the Texas A&M Aggies was named to the “watch list” for the John Mackey Award. The John Mackey Award is given annually to the best tight-end in the nation. Jamie McCoy was placed on the unofficial watch list by the Nassau County Sports Commission in late July.



2008 was the first season that McCoy was listed as a tight end on the Texas A&M Aggies roster. He came out on top of the Big 12 Conference as one of the best top pass-catching ends. McCoy made 43 catches for 500 yards and 5 touchdowns. Last season he only trailed the 2008 Mackey Award winner and an All-American for catches. He was originally recruited as quarterback. There are a total of six Big 12 Conference members on the Mackey Watch list for the 2009 award and the Texas A&M Aggies will face all of them in regular conference play.



Big 12 Conference fans can look forward to watching as Jamie McCoy and the rest of the John Mackey Award candidates battle it out to prove that they are the best!
