STILLWATER – Oklahoma State center Danny Godlevske is one of 40 players on the preseason watch list for the 2021 Rimington Trophy, announced Friday by the Boomer Esiason Foundation.
Godlevske is one of five players from the Big 12 on the watchlist for the award, which is presented annually to the most outstanding center in college football. The trophy committee worked with Pro Football Focus (PFF) to narrow down its list to the top 40 centers entering the 2021 season.
A talented offensive lineman who arrived in Stillwater as a graduate transfer during the spring of 2021, Godlevske began his career at Miami (OH). He came to OSU to play an extra season following the NCAA eligibility ruling around COVID-19 and he participated in spring practice with the Cowboys.
Godlevske is a three-time All-MAC performer who is expected to be an immediate contributor for the Cowboy offense. He has played in 43 career games with 40 starts, and he has now been on the preseason watch list for the Rimington Trophy for five seasons. He holds a degree in sport leadership and management from Miami (OH) and is studying for a master's degree in recreation and leisure management at OSU.
The Rimington Trophy committee will use these three All-America teams to determine a winner at the end of the 2021 season, including the teams selected by the Walter Camp Foundation, Sporting News and the Football Writers Association of America.
The Cowboys are scheduled to the open the 2021 season on September 4, facing Missouri State at 6 p.m. CT at Boone Pickens Stadium. Fans can purchase 2021 Cowboy football season tickets by visiting okstate.com/tickets or by calling or texting 877-ALL-4-OSU.
