Heisman Gibberish
In the local paper today on the front of the sports page was a headline that contained the words Clemens and Heisman. Noticeably absent were the words "no way in hell." Look, I hate the Ducks as much as the next Beaver fan so my stance is no surprise. But this is just absurd. First of all, any reasonable Heisman discussion starts and ends with Reggie Bush. End of discussion. A vote for anyone else is a travesty. Second, Clemens is lucky if he is in the top 5 in the Pac-10, let alone the country. Let's see Bush, Leinart, Mo Drew, Jarrett, Hass, Hagan, etc. Now do I think Hass deserves a look for the award, no. I'm no that much of a homer. They are quality players, but Bush is without question the best. Lastly, it's a little known fact that you can’t win the Heisman without throwing a pass more than 10 yards down field. Sorry, rules are rules.
