People are noticing what we already know. Great source of motivation.

Tebow hasn't been anything special this year(so much for hiring a real QB coach). I think the real leader is McCoy.

Sadly this award has become a coronation by ESPN rather than an objective hunt for the best college football player by a broad spectrum of voters. Qualifications for the award include being an offensive player, having a "Heisman moment" aka jaw dropping highlight, ridiculous stats, and if you are a QB being on a team that plays for the national title.

Jimmy won't win the award unless ND runs the table and he throws less than 5 INTs all year with 35+ TDs and 70% completions.

I think he's on his way to doing that...he has a 68.1 completion percentage (with a BUNCH of drops) 9 TD's and 0 Int.

if Jimmy does get those numbers, the voters should take in consideration that ND lost its best reciever and jimmy still had those numbers. Sadly that wont matter at all. Jimmy will probably be heisman front runner next year.

I love how Jimmy's numbers are twice as good as Tebow's and Tebow's in first place...so much for fairness and credibility. Everything's a preseason poll in college football now.

If were going off a base of statistics, its not like McCoy is lighting up the world or been better than Tebow. He has thrown a few picks in the first three games.

The Heisman is an award given to the best player in college football.....that is a QB or RB.....that plays on one of the top teams.....that started the season with a lot of Heisman hype.

Β 

Tebow is a great example of how horked up this award is now. The media loves Tebow, and they really want to give him this award. He is a great college player....but the media wants to make him the best ever.

Β 

Since JC is not the QB for a team destined to finish in the top 2 or 3 in the nation, and is coming off of an average season statistically he really has no shot this year. Everything he does this year is going towards next year's race (if he stays).

I meant he was the leader for the only two who are eligible to win the Heisman.

Β 

If either of them were given the award for their performances so far, the award would be an even bigger shammockery then it is now.

What a fricken joke.

Β 

Somebody PLEASE explain to me how Tebow is the leader for the Heisman at this point????

Β 

What a shame.

very easy: ESPN! they haven't left his jock since leak graduated and he was the sole starter

What a fricken joke.

I heard it had something to do with Chuck Norris.

What a fricken joke.

The following is pretty much my opinion, and should not be taken as any more than that:

Β 

The Networks...especially ESPN which is a major sponser of the Heisman Award.

I can see with the so far "revival" of Miami why Jacory Harris is being talked about (and I always thought he should have been starting over Marve last season)

Β 

Jimmy should be getting more noise about the Heisman (and would be if we would have beaten scUM... but unfortunatley in the voters eyes the loss counts against him)

Β 

Keenum should be above Tebow for sure... Mallett should be getting talked about from his huge game in the UGA loss

Β 

IMO here would be my top 5

Best

Keenum

Clausen

Harris

with number 5 being a throw in from Mallett,Kellen Moore (BSU QB) Ryan Matthews (RB Fresno)

Β 

Β 

WAYYYYY too much emphasis is put on the TEAMS wins and losses... Mallett threw for 408 and 5TD/0INT vs UGA... Matthews ran for 107 in a loss vs WISC and 234 with 3 TDs in a loss vs BSU

Let's be real here....if we were 3-0 Jimmy would be higher on the list. But we lost to Michigan and that has an anchor on his foot. People look for reasons to put us down.....
