2008 CFN MAC Preview
2009 Preseason
All-MAC Offense
Preseason Offensive
Player of the Year
QB Dan
LeFevour, Central Michigan
 LeFevour is due for a huge senior
season after fighting through ticky-tack injuries, mostly to his
ankle, throughout last year. He led the team in rushing, again,
with 592 yards and six scores, but he tore off 1,122 yards and
19 touchdowns two years ago. He threw for 3,652 yards and 27
scores in 2007, and while he completed 67% of his throws, he
only threw for 2,784 yards with 21 touchdowns. On the plus side,
he was more careful with the ball throwing just six picks with
two of them coming against Purdue. At 6-3 and 223 pounds, he has
NFL size, he's a good leader and a proven winner who carries his
team as much as any quarterback in America not named McCoy or
Tebow, and he has the right attitude.

2009 Preseason
All-MAC Defense
Preseason Defensive Player of the Year
SS
Barry Church, Toledo
 One of the nation's best strong
safeties, he'll play a Star linebacker role
where he'll do a little bit of everything. The
one-time star recruit has lived up to the hype,
and then some, and he'll do whatever the team
needs to win. He was second on the team last
season with 93 tackles with an interception, six
broken up passes, and 5.5 tackles for loss, and
now he'll get more room to roam. At 6-2 and 219
pounds, he has good size, next-level range, and
the potential to have a monster season, even by
his high standards, with even more room to roam
and make plays.
