    Poor les. His staff just makes a ton of money; with a ton and a half he'd hire good staff.

    He can't watch Les's offense without losing his lunch. Says he'd rather just stay home.

    SO________O!!!

    With 7 getting the "snub" at some of these awards, does that motivate some of the underclass O linemen to think they have the opportunity to do something special next year and stick around to try and get 7 his trophy? A little over glorified and story book but it could happen right?

    Let's see. I can stick around one more year so 7 can win the Heisman if something else doesn't go wrong and I might get a serious injury that would keep me from being drafted.
    Or I can go pro now and even if I'm drafted lower than I thought I,'ll still get a few hundred thousand dollars as a bonus and even the league minimum is over $400k per year. Oh, my! What should I do?

    Heisman is stats, importance to team, and team success. It is gonna be the guy who is the best combination of those three factors. Football is the ultimate team sport. No individual award is truly solely individual. It is most like the MVP in the NFL. If Fournette and Henry switched teams, Fournette would be winning the award, not the other way around. I believe Fournette will prove to be the better back in the NFL, but for now he is on a far inferior team to the one Henry plays for. I'm sure a lot of ya'll know that. I guess I just felt like hearing myself talk...
