The Paycom Jim Thorpe Award is awarded to the best
defensive back in college football based on performance on the
field, athletic ability and character. The award was established in
1986 and is named after history’s greatest all-around athlete, Jim
Thorpe. Thorpe excelled as a running back, passer and kicker on the
offensive side of the ball, but also stood out as a defensive back.
In addition to his legendary performance on the football field,
Thorpe played professional baseball and won Olympic gold medals in
the decathlon and pentathlon. The Paycom Jim Thorpe Award is
universally accepted as one of the nation’s top collegiate sports
honors.
Paycom Software, Inc. (NYSE: PAYC) (“Paycom”), a leading
provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management
software, and the Jim Thorpe Museum and Oklahoma Sports Hall of
Fame jointly announced in May 2017 an exclusive sponsorship of the
Jim Thorpe Award. As a result, the accolade has been named the
“Paycom Jim Thorpe Award.”
