Keenan Reynolds to Attend President Obama's State of the Union Address

Navy quarterback Keenan Reynolds will cap off his football career by attending President Barack Obama’s final State of the Union address on Tuesday, according to Navy Athletics.

The senior signal-caller will be a guest of Tennessee Congressman Jim Cooper:

Reynolds led the Midshipmen to a program-best 11 wins last season and set NCAA records for total points scored (530), career rushing touchdowns (88) and career rushing yards by a quarterback (4,559). 

Reynolds, a four-year starter, led the Navy senior class to 36 wins, tying the program record set by the 1909 class but exceeding the incumbents with three bowl wins.

He finished fifth in the Heisman Trophy voting last season, which was the highest among Service Academy players since Roger Staubach claimed the sport’s most prestigious award at Navy in 1963.

Here is an impressive list of the players Reynolds finished ahead of in the Heisman race:

Place	Player	School	Total Vote Points
5th	Keenan Reynolds	Navy	180
6th	Leonard Fournette	LSU	110
7th	Dalvin Cook	FSU	79
8th	Ezekiel Elliott	Ohio State	57
9th	Connor Cook	Michigan State	13
10th	Trevone Boykin	TCU	13

This won’t be Reynolds’ first encounter with Obama, as he and the Midshipmen have met with the president twice after winning the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy.

These prominent meet-and-greets are merely the norm for the star quarterback these days.
