Dave Rimington Trophy
"College Football Center of the Year"
Mellon worked with Dave Rimington to create the Dave Rimington Trophy, honoring the College Football Center of the Year. It was unveiled in Lincoln, Nebraska. The 2001 recipient was LeCharles Bentley of Ohio State University; Dominic Raiola of the University of Nebraska was the 2000 winner, and also received a bronze cast of the award, as did Ohio State University and the University of Nebraska at Lincoln.

Legendary football coach Chuck McBride, commenting on the trophy, said "The Rimington is outstanding…the best I have ever seen."

Corporate sponsorship of the Rimington Trophy and other proceeds from the annual presentation awards dinner will help benefit The Boomer Esiason Foundation in its fight to find a cure for cystic fibrosis.
