Pardon the reality check... it doesn't matter how well he plays this year. He will not be voted Heisman because that would require extensive TV explanations about his past, which is so politically incorrect as to make him an untouchable.
Today environment, where even just verbal "harassment" of females is considered a crime requiring firing from career, noone convicted of a sexual "crime" will be given the benefit of the doubt.
Evidence? The twists and turns and agonies of the announcers during the telecast when dealing with this was painful to behold. It would have been better if he had been a drug dealer than to have grabbed the appendages of that coed.

Even though your post is pretty stupid, I will just say that no one in here said he would WIN the Heisman trophy, but rather be in the discussion. There is a big difference between winning the Heisman trophy and being in the discussions in the middle of the season.

bullshite. People love a good comeback story. In fact, I think an argument could be made that he will get more recognition because of his past. His legal troubles were 4 years ago. Plus, our schedule provides him more opportunities than anyone else to showcase his talent on the big stage. And people saying that the loss to UGA killed his chances don't know what they're talking about. It was his performance in that loss that got him in the mix. And what about the last few Heisman winners? JFF had a loss last year and RG3 had 2 or 3 losses before that. Mark my words, if he keeps his current pace against our schedule and we win out he will definitely go to NY and will probably win because he will have beaten all the other candidates (Murray, JFF, A.J.) head to head and will have comparable stats against stiffer competition. Even if we lose 1 more he probably still makes the trip to NY.

Moronic and shortsighted, ignores empirical evidence to the contrary.
