Wait just one minute sir.  There may be circumstances that preclude him from winning it and that's unfair to judge him because of that.

    * in good academic standing, and
    * on schedule to graduate within one year of students in their eligibility classification.

I find it appalling that you are trying to judge smark hingram by these whacked out standards.


BTW Gerhart also won the Jim Brown Trophy presented to the top running back in college football by the Touchdown Club of Columbus.  Which also has been given to every Heisman RB since its inception in 1991 save for one.

I think AUTiger1 brings up a good point. Does anyone besides myself think that Gerhart didnt win it because he no where near as much TV across the nation as Ingram did? I mean most of the people on this side of the country got a heavy dose of Ingram rather than some West coast team that plays past most peoples bed time on a team that sucked ass the last decade...or two.
Oh absofuckinlutly...Gerhart puts those numbers up playing for USC, this irony thread dosen't exist.

I continue to stand by my statement that the Heisman has been a joke at LEAST since Peyton Manning didn't win it.  Maybe before then.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Why is this thread still going on? Simply put Mark won the Heisman for three reasons. 1)He did very well in big games on national television, except allbarn. 2) He had a good game against Florida center stage and all as well as a big play right after UF's touchdown to make the game a game. 3) Alabama had never had a Heisman before and the voters felt like it was time. End of discussion.

"So I want everybody to think here for a second, how much does this game mean to you? 'Cause if it means something to you, you can't stand still. You understand? You play fast! You play strong! You go out there and dominate the man you're playing against, and you make his ass quit! That's our trademark! That's our M.O.... as a team! That's what people know us as!" ~ Nick Saban

Because it is fun to point out others shortcomings?

No issue with Tebow crying. I never took part in the ridicule of him over that. The guy couldn't have given a classier interview after the game. THAT is how you compliment a team and/or player. THAT is how you answer a question asked by somebody trying to set you up. He wasn't talking shit before the game, or after. No problems. Not really a Tebow fan either, but the guy can't help how much the media slobs his knob. Tate was walking around giving back handed compliments out. What do you expect to get out of that? Had Ingram said what Tate said, I would fully expect the same thing from you guys if the shoe were on the other foot.

Oooohhh...  He thought he was the best player in the state.  What a phukup!!  All players should think they suck in comparison to other backs who have similar stats especially when those similar stats were compiled against lesser competition.  

I can't for the life of me think of a single reason Ben should consider himself in the same universe as Ingram.  He shouldn't have committed the blasphemy of thinking he could compare to a mighty Bama player. 

Fuck off, RWS.  I generally don't think you're a total idiot but on this topic you've become king puss of mommy partville.  

Here's a little nugget for you.  Ingram just finished his sophomore year.  He better leave now.  Because he won't be starting if he sticks around until he's a senior.  He isn't that good.

No, I don't think he should have said that he sucks. He should have done what other players and coaches do when a reporter tries to trap them with a question and get them to say some stupid shit. Avoid the question, or at the very least, if you are going to compliment, don't give a backhanded one. Thats what it was. If the roles were reversed, even though I think Ingram is the better back, I wouldn't be happy if he went out proclaiming it in the media. You just don't go out in the media saying that shit. I realize the person asking the question was trying to trap him into it, but still. The guy is a senior, and he should know better than to fall for that.

I don't think Tate is classless or anything like that. I still think he's a pretty good back, and I'm sure he's a good guy. He simply ran his mouth a little. It doesn't make him a horrible person, but it does open him up to take a little shit on down the road.

Backhanded compliments?  You mean like this one, taken out of the same interview?

Quote
“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: he’s a very good running back,” Tate said. “He’s having a great year. Their team is undefeated. He’s a great running back. I hope he wins the Heisman. Honestly, I’m serious when I say that because he’d be the first running back to win it since Reggie Bush, and I think he’s got the opportunity to do that.

What an asshole.
