December 11, 20169 yr I'm not sure he is the actual best player What is then No, he is a really good player and whatever award he gets he deserves Whats it like to be so bitter and cynical all the time? Must be rough. I know you're upset that a player from Louisville won the most prestigious award in College Football, but you'll get over it. :lol2:
December 11, 20169 yr Probably the last thing Louisville fans want to see: @steveJones_CJ: Johnny Manziel posts IG video of him hanging out with Lamar Jackson after Jackson's Heisman win http://cjky.it/2hzsZI2 via @courierjournal

December 11, 20169 yr It's not the Louisville thing, he lost 3 games and 2 of them are to teams not even ranked and huge favorites in one of them It's an individual award. If the only ammo you have is that his team lost three games, your argument is pretty weak. He was the best player in the country this year. Fact.
December 11, 20169 yr I think he more than deserved the award. But I saw this article yesterday and just shook my head. Lamar Jackson joins these least-deserving Heisman winners of all time In any other year, I'll be right there in critcizing the Heisman. It's silly and flawed. ... but this year I'm enjoying it too much. I feel like this could be a big moment for Louisville and hopefully be a catalyst to propel the Cardinals even further.
December 11, 20169 yr Congratulations Lamar!!!! It was a blast watching this young, dynamic player achieve such outstanding results this year – well done! Nice to see Bobby Petrino looking dapper and proud; and Lamar’s mother is beautiful! We were watching the show at O’Shea’s in Louisville, and the place absolutely erupted…. Happy times for Louisville!!
December 11, 20169 yr Read somewhere that last night during the show was the first interview Lamar's mother had ever agreed to give. All the stuff about her putting pads on and coaching him up herself was pretty wild. Still helps coach youth players.
December 11, 20169 yr Congratulations to Lamar. Well deserved award. As far the losses that Mt Ref mentioned, this is an individual award. Paul Hornung won the award in 1956 when his Notre Dame team finished the season 2-8.

December 11, 20169 yr Isn't that the year Johnny Majors got robbed? Maybe. I've always thought of it as the year Jim Brown inexplicably finished fifth. 1956 Heisman Voting Well, maybe not inexplicably...
December 11, 20169 yr Hopefully not on the same trajectory as Baylor after RGIII won. Well, Baylor's trajectory had precious little to do with football itself.
December 11, 20169 yr Maybe. I've always thought of it as the year Jim Brown inexplicably finished fifth. 1956 Heisman Voting Well, maybe not inexplicably... Well yeah looking at those stats, none of them deserved it...3 TD 13 INT, some golden boy :bag:
December 11, 20169 yr ...also the youngest to ever win the award. Note to Lamar...run, run like heck away from that Manziel guy! There are much better mentors out there for you young man!
