Ohio State is conceding the Heisman to Joe Burrow

Ohio State (and the Fox/northern Media outlets) have been pushing different players over the last few weeks to try and make this a real race with Joe.
Joe didn't falter a single bit.
They have switched course and have scrapped this plan (and in my eyes stopped trying to win the Heisman) but instead they are trying to shift the narrative to get 3 players to New York (which would be extremely impressive). But by doing this they will be forced to share votes they desperately need to even have a fleeting chance at coming within miles of Joe.
But in the end these three players absolutely deserve to be in New York to watch Joe win.
Hurts can come to.

It'd be cool to have one or two of those guys there with Joe.
Not one person I've seen has ill will or animosity towards him. Quite the contrary.

It's all for recruiting (nothing wrong with, just what it is).
They will sell that there are 4 Buckeyes in NY if they get 3 guys there.
ETA: They bring 5 right?

You also don't want to piss anyone off pushing just 1.

It all depends on the voting. 2 thru however many are relatively close.

Minimum of three but as many as get the votes can come, getting invited is based on votes received.
Realistically speaking with Joe taking so many 1st place votes this year its going to be hard to see more than 3-4 make it.
Unless something wacky happens this weekend.

Jonathan Taylor has more total rushing yards, more rushing YPG, and more rushing TDs than Dobbins.

They only invite players that qualify with enough overall votes. Could be just 3, 4, 5, etc.

Dobbins does not belong there. Neither does Young. Dobbins doesn't lead the Big 10 in any category and is barely top 10 in the country. Young missed 2 games and disappeared in their biggest game of the year.
It should be Joe, Fields and Hurts in that order with Joe winning in a landslide.

Jamaar Chase should be invited but no one wants to talk about that. He's having a crazy season along with basically the whole offense.

Ohio State is definitely not hurting right now.
...Throw in those fabulous band uniforms, and WOW!

This. They are also covered if we win the NC.
A Buckeye was necessary to help LSU get over the hump and win it all.

I like the fact that they are worried about publicity while all you hear out of LSU is "we're focused on te next game".

Chase is for sure more deserving than Dobbins

Chase should be up there before those three OSU players. He made a much greater impact on his team than them.

Any first place vote placed for anyone other than Joe Burrow is biased.
Posted on 12/3/19 at 4:42 pm to Lsu101205
J.Chase should go before Dobbins

Dobbins national stats:
YPG 4th
TD 5th
He's a great player that didn't pad stats in 2nd halves. Agree he doesn't really deserve to be in NYC.

Fields doesn't belong there. Not because he isn't good, but because he isn't Heisman finalist good. He's the QB on what some consider the best team, and that's all tht matters to some people.
He's not a guy who performs well under duress, from what I've seen, and he doesn't have great accuracy on downfield throws. Yeah, he'll hit on some bombs, but he's mostly just throwing intermediate passes, and hasn't faced great competition. In these upcoming playoffs, he's going to have to do some things he's not had to do all year, and I don't know that he can handle that. we've seen Joe handle everything.
And I'm fine with Dobbins being there, so long as Ja'Marr Chase is there, as well.

Urban should be proud. This speaks volumes of the good job CUM did there at Ohio State.
