Armanti Edwards

Image

Class: So.
Hometown: Greenwood, S.C.
High School: Greenwood
Height: 6-0
Weight: 175
Position: QB
Birthdate: March 8, 1988

As a freshman who didn’t start until the third game of the season, Edwards turned in one of the finest seasons ever by a quarterback of any age and at any level of college football ... the diminutive signal-caller became just the fifth player in NCAA Division I history (and only the second freshman) to pass for 2,000 yards and rush for 1,000 in the same season (the others are Morehead State’s David Dinkins - 1999; Clemson’s Woodrow Dantzler - 2001; Missouri’s Brad Smith - 2002 and Texas’ Vince Young - 2005 — Smith was the only other freshman to accomplish the feat) ... the southpaw went 13-0 as a starter in his initial collegiate campaign en route to Southern Conference and National Freshman of the Year recognition.

2006: Freshman phenom brought home National Freshman of the Year and all-America (College Sporting News) recognition as well as SoCon Freshman of the Year and first-team all-conference plaudits ... the southpaw played in all 15 games, starting the final 13 ... threw for 2,251 yards and ran for 1,153 more, becoming just the fifth player in NCAA Division I history (and only the second freshman) to pass for 2,000 yards and rush for 1,000 in the same season ... joined Kevin Richardson to become the first duo in ASU history to each amass 1,000 rushing yards in the same season ... took just 10 starts to break every school record for a freshman quarterback, including passing yards (needed just six games to break previous record), total offense (6), completions (8), touchdown passes (9), rushing yards (5) and rushing touchdowns (10) ... shattered school records for rushing yards and touchdowns (15) by a quarterback of any age ... led all freshman nationally (true or redshirt) in pass efficiency, total offense and points responsible for and all true freshman in passing yardage ... joined Western Carolina’s Lamont Seward (2000) as the only five-time winners of the SoCon Freshman of the Week award ... had modest results in relief stints versus NC State (8 total yards) and James Madison (33 total yds., rushing TD) ... entered the starting lineup in week three versus Mars Hill and threw for 203 yards and a touchdown and ran for 49 more yards and another score to lead the 41-0 shutout ... had a coming out party a week later in front of a national-television audience (ESPNU) at Gardner-Webb ... ran 13 times for 101 yards and a score and completed 16-of-22 passes for 195 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions en route to SoCon Freshman of the Week recognition ... would go on to collect SoCon Freshman of the Week accolades each of the next two weeks (263 total yards, 2 TD vs. Elon; 12-of-14 passing for 311 yds. and 3 TD in just one half of work in 56-21 drubbing at Chattanooga) ... also earned SoCon Frosh of the Week honors for performance in double-overtime victory at Georgia Southern (350 yds. of total offense, 2 TD) ... highlight of he 350-yard effort at GSU came when the 165-pound Edwards bowled over a GSU defender at the goal line, jarring the Eagle’s helmet off his head while Edwards scored ... Edwards suffered a mild knee injury in the draining triumph in Statesboro, but showed no ill effects the following week when he led ASU to its biggest-ever win over Furman, a 40-7 rout at Kidd Brewer Stadium ... in the regular-season finale at Western Carolina, Edwards earned his fifth SoCon Freshman of the Week award by compiling 204 yards of offense and accounting for three scores in a driving rainstorm ... in his postseason debut, Edwards came up just five yards shy of a school record for total offense in a postseason game (Richie Williams, 403 vs. SIU, 2005), passing for 226 and rushing for 172 and two touchdowns to lead open up a 31-0 halftime lead en route to an easy 45-28 rout over No. 13 Coastal Carolina ... in the win, Edwards and Richardson became the first ASU duo in three years to rush for 100 yards apiece in the same game, a feat they accomplished again each of the following two weeks to advance to the national championship game ... Edwards ran for 105 yards and a touchdown in a 38-17 quarterfinal win over No. 18 Montana State and scored three times on 110 rushing yards in a 49-24 drubbing of fifth-ranked Youngstown State in the national semifinals ... for the first time in six games, Edwards failed to account for a TD in the national championship game, but his 227 yards of total offense were more than enough to help propel ASU to a 28-17 win over No. 3 UMass ... capped it all off by being named to ASU athletics’ academic honor roll.


High School: Multi-talented left-handed quarterback threw for over 2,000 yards and ran for over 1,100 as a senior ... accounted for 29 touchdowns (17 passing, 12 rushing) in ‘05 ... played in 2005 Shrine Bowl ... began playing quarterback midway through junior season in which he threw for nearly 1,400 yards and 18 touchdowns and hauled in five passes for over 100 yards and a score at wide receiver.

#14 The Cole Bergquist
Born: 11/16/1985
Height: 6' 2"
Weight: 206 lbs.

Year: Junior
Major: Business Administration

Hometown: San Clemente, CA
Previous School: San Clemente HS

Cole Bergquist is vying to be Montana's starting quarterback in 2007. He is 6-3 as a starter at UM.

2006: He was very solid in a back-up role and led the Griz to a 36-7 victory over South Dakota State in his only start. In that start against SDSU he was 22-of-35-0 for 257 yards and a touchdown and rushed 11 times for 32 yards. He was UM's fourth-leading rusher, gaining 110 yards on 25 carries.

2005: He played in all 12 games and started the last eight contests of the season, going 5-3. He passed for 1,275 yards and eight touchdowns.

2004: He was a redshirt.

High School: Bergquist completed 158-of-262 (60.3%) of his passes for 2,190 yards and 19 touchdowns and he rushed for five touchdowns as a senior at San Clemente High School. His senior team was 9-4 and advanced to the state semifinals. As a senior he was chosen first team All-South Coast League and honorable mention Division II All-CIF. His senior season he was also named team offensive MVP and served as team captain. He was tabbed as the Orange County Register's preseason offensive MVP prior to his senior year. His high school football coach was Eric Patton.

He was one of 35 athletes honored as Orange County Hall of Fame Scholar Athlete and was a National Football Foundation scholar-athlete and maintained a 3.8 GPA in high school.

Personal: His major is business. His parents are Craig and Sheryl Bergquist of San Clemente. Birth date: November 16, 1985. He was named to the All-Big Sky Conference academic team the past two seasons and maintains a 3.42 GPA.

Career highs: He had 257 passing yards vs. South Dakota State, 2006. He was 25-of-40 against Eastern Washington, 2005. Long pass: 66 vs. Cal Poly, 11/26/05. He had two scoring passes in a road win at Idaho State and in a home win over Cal Poly in 2005.

Quoting head coach Bobby Hauck: "Cole is in a heated battle right now to be our starter, but he's the one player on our football team at that position who has game experience. He needs to come in and take that job in fall camp. If he does, I think he will be a very productive player for us this fall. He's got a chance to put up big numbers within our offense and within our league. He's started nine games in his career and has a good record as a starting quarterback. That should give him an advantage as we go into fall camp in the quarterback competition."
