Jason White won the Heisman

It was announced one half hour ago, and I don't see any posts about it. Thought people would be pissed off or something.

Poor guy, if you only knew what Tuttle Oklahoma is like....it is just a hole. Well, on second thought, he's really lucky he has football to get out of that armpit. ( I lived about ten miles north of Tuttle)

I haven't been following college football too closely this year, but what happened to the QB from Miami (OH)? I was surprised to see someone from the MAC being considered -- his name was in USA Today a couple weeks ago as a possible finalist.

Was he just from too small a school? I know that's usually an issue with the Heisman for some reason.

disadvantage, so is anyone who ISN'T a quarterback or wide receiver. Nothing against Jason White, but the Heisman doens't mean much anymore, just as the Sugar Bowl means squat.

I'm still annoyed that Antwaan Randle El didn't win a couple of years ago. Amazing player, but unfortunately the coach simply didn't understand defense -- scoring 50 points a game is great, but doesn't mean much if you let half your opponents score 60! On any other team, Randle El would have won it, or at least had a good chance.

are usually the ones who win. wide receivers rarely win.

I've seen literally hundreds of games in the Las Vegas sportsbooks this season, and Roethlisberger was easily the standout player. He's 6'5", 240 with a great arm, excellent touch and surprising mobility and pocket awareness for that size.

I would have rejected Jason White immediately, similar to previous Heisman mediocrities like Gino Toretta, Danny Weurffel, Andre Ware, Ty Detmer, etc. Guys like that are simply taking advantage of the situation they are in, and are not special at all. White is on an excellent team with a dominant defense, similar to what Toretta enjoyed at Miami and Weurffel at Florida. You get numerous possessions in great field position with which to throw to your excellent, and wide open, receivers. Detmer and particularly Ware were on lesser teams, but pass happy ones that terrirized pathetic foes. Ware was the worst Heisman winner I have ever seen. His little run and shoot receivers would take a 5 yard pass and scamper 80 yards, all credit to Ware. Downfield, Ware was not accurate at all.

I loved the run oriented college era, and the legit Heisman winners. It was hard to go wrong with a Simpson, Dorsett, Sims, Campbell, Allen, Walker, etc. Only Rashan Salaam of Colorado was a pathetic Heisman choice as a back. All I ever saw him do was catch pitchouts and turn upfield along the sideline, no moves at all. When that earned him the Heisman, I realized it had become purely a stat award, no longer best player, and therefore the annointment of all these big number QBs.

I didn’t think they would ever get to announcing who won. Go Jason. Sooners number one ---
