John Papuchis is a low-key fellow who tends to fly under the radar. But he's obviously well-respected among his coaching peers.
The 32-year-old Husker special teams coordinator is one of four finalists for FootballScoop special teams coordinator of the year.
The FootballScoop coaches of the year are the only set of awards that recognize the most outstanding position coaches in college football. According to its web site, finalists were selected based off of nominations by coaches, athletic directors, and athletic department personnel. A panel of coaches, including previous recipients, will determine the the 2010 winners. Votes tallied
on this page are considered; however, a panel of coaches make the final decision.
Other finalists for the special teams award are Joe DeForest of Oklahoma State, Tom Osborne of Oregon and Joe Robinson of Louisiana State.
