Heisman Got It Right
best Heisman winner in a long time.
and no finger nail polish.
Thorpe Award has been trying to be irrelevant for decades. Took another step this year. Sorry @Swaye . I still love actual Jim Thorpe. Don’t twist.

I wanted Jeanty but Hunter deserved it how Gabriel got up there is a goddamn mystery
-
Jeanty won?
-
-
running backs a dime a dozen.
running backs racking up numbers feasting on Mountain West defenses a nickel for two dozen.Jon Root is a feegott.
-
Hmmmmm…… I mean he did have 190 yards rushing against Oregon
-
one game.
No other player had two coordinators game plan around him. One of the best receivers in the country and probably the best corner in the country. Every down player.
running backs a dime a dozen. Hunter is a diamond.
will blow up the NFL. Special player. There’s always a Jenty. FS the love that kid gets. -
ok
but you said he padded his stats against weak opponents.
he ran for 190 yards against the number one team in the country with probably 1/10 of the resources
like I said. Travis Hunter deserved it. Jeanty is the People’s champion.
-
One game for a buck ninety early in the season. BFD. He’s a good back. There’s always a good back. This isn’t an Oregon discussion.
The likes of Hunter hasn’t been seen in a very, very long time. Even better than Woodson as a two way, who wasn’t in Hunter’s zip code as a receiver.
- 1443 snaps. Amazing.
- 92 catches (some of the most athletic you've ever seen) for 1,152 yards
- 14 receiving tds; 1 rushing td
- 31 tackles
- 15 passes defended (5th in FBS despite being avoided like the plague)
- 4 ints
- 1 forced fumble and it was a clutch af playPeople still suck Woodson’s cock and he was not near Hunter’s zip code on offense.
the kid is fucking elite and comparing him to a running back is FS. People can hate on Sanders all they want; the kid is not Sanders. Adults don’t let their biases control their brains.
This is as clear as it gets. Vote wasn’t close but gap should have been even wider.
My feet are taped to the pedals on this one despite my new found maturity . I ain’t budging an inch on this. The people are stupid as always.
Also, what kind of FS name is Jeanty? Sounds French. FS.

Best Heisman winner in decades.
Adults don’t let their bias control their brains. I’m an adult and fortunately most, but not enough, Heisman voters are too.But, but, a twitter feegit who loves Christ says the player did didn’t strike the Heisman pose - because that’s relevant - and whose coach also loves Christ says the mountain west running back who did “things we’ve never before seen” - even though we have - is the people’s Heisman. Those people are stupid.
Adults don’t let their bias control their brains. If Hunter was a Husky this place and this city and this state would be losing its collective mind at the mere mention of the Mountain West running back.
1443 snaps in 12 games. Playing two positions at an elite level. We haven’t seen one like him. Gentys are a dime a dozen.
Think about it.
-
It wasn't Gabriel, so it was a good choice.
-
don’t pollute my thread on the best Heisman winner in decades with Duck talk. that’s the other forum.
Keep it pure.
-
Can we compromise and have it be both? He was a stud two-way player and is a deserving winner - and not a quarterback. And not from a blue blood school. And not a duck. That's as pure as Virgin Mary's VJ.
-
No. the “not a this and not a that” doesn’t factor in. Best player in the game is the criteria. Hunter was clearly the best and is THE deserving player. The only one. They shouldn’t have even invited Genty and Gabriel. Should have had every single vote. Every vote for Genty was due entirely to bias or was cast by stupid people. Or both.
That’s extra virgin pure.
-
the 3 losers who voted the army qb and rourke #1 should never have a vote for any award ever again
-
-
I will concede that those votes are more stupid than voting for the mountain west stat running back. just once, just here. Voters need to be vetted.
back to the only message that matters: the Heisman trophy matters again. best choice in decades. not even close. we have not had a winner like this in our lifetimes.
-
I don’t disagree. He’s Charles Woodson if Woodson was also a top 5 wr. Will be interesting to see how he’s used in the nfl. I think he’s a better corner than wr but WR is where the $ is at
-
but @JonRoot says Genty is doing things we've never seen before. JFC.
and Gordon did it against a real schedule. Frenchy did it against this one:
Creepy is right as rain on this one. Get on board or get left behind.
Mountain West FS. EMA J.
Thanks Race. You've done it again!!!!!!

Your Pomona credentials are showing out today. Well said.
Too bad the other guys aren't smart enough to even order the free Pomona marketing material.
-
You make a sound argument. I had Hunter and Jeanty as 1A and 1B.
Hunter the better athlete and player. Jeanty the better season and stats. I also dinged Hunter for missing time due to injury.
-
1400 plus snaps. Most players wouldn't make it through alive much less have the stamina to even try, much less the ability to be elite at both.
Stats whores need to do their thing in a P5 conference or GTFO.
Best Heisman in decades.
But your conciliatory and reasonable post deserves you another plate of nachos. Go get 'em big fella.
-
You need typically 4 players for New York, and there weren’t many good options out there for a 4th. Skatebo? Klubnik? Shadeur? The QB of the only undefeated team in CFB with upper tier stats to go with it. They could have done much worse than Gabriel. I don’t really see the mystery there. The only thing that bothered me was Deion and his kid, basically taking much of the spotlight away from Travis Hunter. That didn’t set very well with me.
-
The Army QB as a top ten finalist, then laying that egg against Navy seemed pretty appropriate. Thanks for serving our country, but it’s 2024, a military school player is not in the same league.

disagree

free country. you are well within your rights to be wrong.
