About 28 minutes long. A lot of it is dull, but there's an occasional glimpse into the kid.

[FONT=Verdana]Antoine Cason is an All-American — again. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]The UA football team's star cornerback was named to the All-America first team by The Associated Press on Tuesday, marking his sixth major postseason award in the last 10 days. [/FONT]

[View Full Quote][FONT=Verdana]Cason won the Jim Thorpe Award, given annually to the nation's top defensive back, last week. He has been named a first-team All-American by the Walter Camp Football Foundation, SI.com and Rivals.com. Cason, 21, received first-team all-conference honors shortly after the Wildcats finished their season with a Dec. 1 loss to Arizona State. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]"I am honored to be recognized by the AP for the All-American team," Cason said Tuesday. "This, along with all the postseason recognition, adds to all the great moments I've had at the U of A." [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]Tuesday's award won't be Cason's last. He is widely expected to be inducted into the Arizona Stadium "Ring of Honor" next fall for his accomplishments. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]The UA requires athletes to win at least one major national award to make the ring: The Thorpe Award and AP honors are more than enough to qualify Cason. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]Cason is the first UA player to make AP's first-team All-America list since 1999, when Dennis Northcutt was selected as a kick-return specialist. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]Two other Pac-10 players, USC nose tackle Sedrick Ellis and Arizona State place-kicker Thomas Weber, also made this year's team.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]The AP's All-Americans were chosen by a panel of 12 sportswriters and media members from across the country. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]Cason registered five interceptions, 71 tackles and one sack during his senior season. He also returned two interceptions for touchdowns.[/FONT]

Any idea why these guys have him as the 60th prospect?

I think Porter will go before Cason unless Cason really wows them at the Combine.

I don't think he will be there for our pick.

Porter told Mayok that he (Porter) is going to run a sub 4.3 40 at the combine. Wow, we shall see.

I don't think Porter is going to go from a 3rd round prospect to a 1st round
