Freshmen Make a

Major Impact Middle Tennessee has had a true freshman earn national recognition three of four years under Rick Stockstill. In fact, freshmen have played an integral part in the resurgence of the Blue Raiders the past four years. During the Stockstill era, a total of 71 freshmen have seen action, with 35 being first-year players. In 2006, Desmond Gee was a first-team all-conference player, leading the team in touchdown receptions and punt returns and finishing second in total receptions. QB Dwight Dasher was the next true freshman to shine, earning honorable mention freshman All-American honors after leading the Blue Raiders in rushing in 2007. In 2008, seven players made the All-Freshman team, and WR Malcolm Beyah led the team in touchdown catches and yards per catch, and Alan Gendreau finished second in scoring. Last year, Kenneth Gilstrap, Justin Jones, Harold Turner, and Benjamin Cunningham all earned All-SBC freshman recognition. Who will be the next great freshman?
