Vanderbilt linebacker Chase Garnham has been chosen as a potential candidate for the 2013 Lott IMPACT Award, which honors college football's defensive player of the year both on and off the field. Garnham, who has developed from athletic prospect into defensive leader in his time in Nashville, will lead a young linebacking corps this fall. He's one of five SEC defenders to be singled out by the Lott Award committee.
When it comes to SEC schools, the study lists Vanderbilt as the big winner.

"I really saw that transition was because of what he did off the field," Carta-Samuels said. "So learning from him, in about week eight last year I started doing what he did and I think the light really came on for me about week 11. At the start of spring ball, I’m about where I want to be."
FRANKLIN: Anchor down your butts.
Ugh. I hope this doesn't come back to bite us.
