Last night, Vad Lee was chosen as the Dudley Award winner for 2015. The award recognizes the top Division I college football player in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Vad also won it last year and is now the only two time<\/del> back-to-back winner in award history. It’s the third straight year a Duke has won, with Stephon Robertson taking home the honor two years ago. Other past winners of the award include JMU’s Rodney Landers, the Hokies’ Tyrod Taylor, and UVA’s Tiki Barber.<\/p>\n

Lee had a monster season before going down with an injury. Despite missing\u00a04 games, he led the CAA in total offense, throwing for 2190 yards and rushing for another 870. He also managed to rack up 8 TDs rushing and 21 passing. It was one of, if not the, most impressive college football seasons in the Commonwealth in years. It’s scary to think what his stats, and the Dukes’ season, would have looked like had he not gotten injured.<\/p>\n
