Was spectacular in his first full season as a starter in 2008 ... makes up for what he lacks in size with quick feet and hands, great technique, intensity and toughness ... head coach Jerry Moore has often pointed out that he believes that Irvin is one of the most underrated players on the team and around the conference ... is a near-perfect snapper, a skill that can’t be overlooked in Appalachian’s shotgun-based spread offense.
2008: Made all 14 starts at center ... was the anchor of an offensive line that was the first at ASU since 1989 to sport the same starting five each week for an entire season ... graded out at 80 percent or higher five times in 13 graded appearances ... turned in perhaps his finest performance at No. 5 James Madison, grading out at a season-best 85 percent over 70 grueling plays while tallying 12 knockdowns, five more than the Mountaineers’ next-highest total ... hit the 80-percent mark on the button versus Presbyterian, Furman, Chattanooga and Elon ... received the high marks despite playing every snap in the wins over Furman and Elon (60 and 57 plays, respectively).
