NATIONAL COLLEGE FOOTBALL RETURN SPECIALIST AWARD (THE JET AWARD) College football has commonly been heralded as the most exciting and dramatic sport in the nation. Some would go as far as to say that college football is the one true American experience. The excitement and spirit of the game is particularly captivated by the play known as the return. History has shown that big returns can become legendary, immortalizing the team and the play itself forever. Since 2011 The Jet Award is the first to officially honor the most exciting and electrifying play in college football… the return and the athlete that makes it all happen!
