It might not be the Heisman, but the Campbell Trophy is still a great honor. Tim Tebow was named the 20th winner of the William V. Campbell Trophy at The National Football Foundation & College Hall of Fame’s awards dinner. The Campbell Trophy honors college football’s top scholar-athlete.

Tebow will graduate on Dec. 19 with a 3.66 grade-point average as a Family, Youth & Community Sciences major. He’s had a light load this fall semester – only taking one class. But the fact that he’s been able to maintain a 3.66 gpa over 4 years of school is simply amazing. Football players spend so much time in the locker room studying film, practicing and traveling that it doesn’t leave much time to study. A 3.66 GPA is outstanding.

“Tim Tebow is a once in a lifetime student-athlete,” said NFF President & CEO Steven J. Hatchell. “Tim’s unparalleled accomplishments and charisma have transcended the playing field, capturing the imagination of both young and old. We could not be prouder to have Tim as an ambassador of this award and our sport.”

For winning the Campbell Trophy, Tim will receive a $25,000 postgraduate scholarship and a 24-inch, 25-pound bronze trophy – time to clear off more mantle space at the Tebow home.

“This award means so much because it’s not just how you play on the field, it’s not just what you do in the classroom, but it’s what you do as a leader and someone who is going to serve your community,” Tebow said according to a release from the Hall of Fame after the banquet. “That’s what’s most important about this award, because all these guys are great players and they’re extremely intelligent, but more importantly, they’re good people. They help their community and they make a difference in this world.”
