Last Heisman Trophy candidate

Bert Jones was 4th in Heisman votes in 1972. Johnny Rogers from Nebraska won that year.

 

Now there is a blast from the past. The Raiders used to have a really good organization. But as "they" say, a fish rots from the head down.

 

I believe I'm offended by that remark...

 

Except fish that are in Chicago for awhile ... and I didn't know you were rotting.

 

That's why he'll always be my #1 Saint!

 

IMO, PP is the most viable Heisman candidate we've had since the 70s.

While I thought many of our athletes in the 80s and 90s and more recently were all world and indescribably vital to the teams we've had...PP is head and shoulders above the majority of current collegiate football players. He is something special, and if the Heisman were truly an award for the best college football player (rather than the best offensive player on the highest ranked flavor of the year team), he would be a top three contender.

I'd love for him to win awards. But I'm mostly thankful that I get to see him suit up in purple and gold.

 

if Michigan wins 8-9 games and Denard Robinson keeps putting up the numbers he's putting up, we won't need to worry about PPs chances. He'd have to have damn near a td per game to compare unfortunately.
