Congrats PRich! PAC-12 Player of the Week

Probably right on the Heisman, since I don't think we win enough games for them to consider him, but he could be CU's first Biletnikoff winner!

I'd tap the brakes on the Heisman, but I sure wouldn't complain if he maintained that pace.

Congrats PRich! Un-freakin'-believable that kid right now!

Yeah I am thinking we are not going to win enough games for him to get into the Heisman race. Now if he stays on this pace and goes for 2,400 yards and 24 tds then we will talk. Because those are video game numbers and not a realistic goal.
 
If he hits those kind of numbers we will likely be 11-3 by the time things are all said and done.
 
Not surprising but very cool.

In a ****ed up way, I'm glad he was able to miss last season's debacle.

It's early, but he looks better than Marquise Lee. (Of course PRich has someone to throw it to him.). I don't think it's a stretch at all to say he's an early Biletnikoff leader. As for the Heisman, seems you have to be at least in the top 25, if not top 10 to get much real attention from the voters.
 
I agree with Shldr2Shldr, if he keeps up this pace we'll win the games. That said, I don't think he keeps up this pace. Perhaps just 100 yds per game, hahah.

Ha if he hits 24 Td's the yardage won't really matter. That would be a ridiculous season.
 
Let's be clear, if he keeps up this pace he will definitely win the Heisman, but there's no way anyone should expect him to do that.

He's currently on pace for over 2,500 yards receiving - the all time FBS record for yards in a season is 2,060 set by Trevor Insley from Nevada in 1999. If he breaks that mark by almost 500 yards in a BCS conference, the Heisman would be automatic IMO. Still not going to happen, but fun to think about.

I'll never forget the moving ceremony in New York when Trevor won his Heisman.

I know, I know, you qualified it with "in a BCS conference", but ESPN still thinks we're in the Big XII. I'm afraid we're not relevant enough yet to get more attention than Nevada.

FIFY

Poor M. Lee has to put up with Kiffin's play-calling, while Kiffin's too busy thinking about what's going to happen when he gets home!

I hate to say it, but Richardson could set the record and still get more than a few 3rd place votes anywhere east of the Mississippi.

I'd love it if the Heisman always went to the most deserving player. However, Barry Sanders aside, it seems highly correlated to team performance. Prove me wrong PRich! Let's continue this trajectory!

A heisman is huge, not only for the school but the conference prestige. Larry Scott would launch a full promotion campaign if P-Rich or any player for that matter in the PAC was a heisman finalist.

Which is exactly why he couldn't win it this year. No way the Heisman would go to a player on a team not named Notre Dame that finishes under .500. That OSU team went 10-2 and even with that it still took spectacular numbers by Sanders to win it.

No way - you obliterate a record like that in a BCS conference and people will notice, especially if you're going through Oregon, USC, Washington, etc to get there.

WRs rarely win the Heisman which would work against him, but look at the stats from the last 2 WRs to win the Heisman compared to PRich's pace. These are all purpose totals since both Brown and Howard returned kicks, both were under 1,000 yards receiving in their Heisman years:

Tim Brown (1987) - 1,847 yds, 7 TDs
Desmond Howard (1991) - 1,859 yds, 23 TDs
PRich (2013 pace) - 2,502 yds, 24 TDs

Just keep up this pace and let's see what happens. :thumbsup:

I forgot how great of a season that Desmond Howard had. No wonder he did the Heisman pose.
 
Man I thought I was one of the resident Kool-Aidaholics but PRich for the Heisman is stretching it.

He is damn good and right now the best receiver in the nation, but we're 2 games in and have played below average competition. He is certainly in the running for the Biletnikoff. We'd have to get to the Pac12 championship game in my opinion for him to have a chance and that is not likely to happen.

Listen guys, given who we have played and who we will play, if PRich can average over a hundred yards receiving a game and 1 TD, he should be All-Pac12, on some All-American teams and should be in the mix to go to Orlando for the post-season awards. I think that would be a phenomenal accomplishment obviously for him but also for the team and this staff in its first year. I do believe that P-Rich will be the different in another couple of games this year. Great to see!
 
Good Lord, the ****ing Heisman. Umm he gotta put up huge numbers all year against teams like Oregon. Plus people have to see it live or no way.
