I've heard that you have to be kinda good to win the Davey O'Brien award, but I dunno.
I take offense that the voting was “close”.
“Hunter finished with 2,231 points, earning 552 first-place votes. Jeanty was a close second, with 2,017 points and 309 first-place votes”.
Hunter had 243 more first place votes (78% more) than Jeanty — not close — but the total scoring difference is less than that at 214 (10%). Something is wrong with Heisman voting and/or voters. (I know there’s a lot of politics, aka dislike of CP)

He only plays one side of the ball, how good can he be?
Nobody remembers or cares what the voting looked like for a Heisman or HoF induction or anything else after the fact. All that matters is that he won. Celebrate.
We were robbed in 1937. Who the hell is Clint Frank?
Spot on and most of the Jeanty “outrage” is manufactured nonsense to get clicks.
There is that MVP charisma from Nathan MacKinnon!

Wrong arm/leg combo. It doesn't even make sense.

Please remember that while Travis Hunter was playing nearly every snap on offense and defense on his way to winning a Heisman, this young man also earned a 4.0 GPA. #CUBuffs

And after Jeanty gets completely shut down by Penn State there’ll only be crickets.
Probably why he accomplished nothing after his playing days.
Yeah. Whatever happened to that guy?
Post a link, dickface
Nice little article on Travis Sr. here in Palm Beach this morning.
Heisman favorite Travis Hunter's family is sports royalty in hometown of Boynton Beach
Travis Hunter Sr. was released from Palm Beach County West Detention Center nine days before his son, Travis Jr., is expected to win the Heisman Trophy.

This is why **** costs so much, because people return crap that they broke well after the warranty period. SMH.
Not as much as Oregon.
I don’t get it. Whatever site we were voting on had Hunter in the lead (by 20+%) the entire time…even the day it closed.
What's funny is the weird Oregon/Boise alliance that has come out of this
Two fan bases that know this is the last year either of them will finish ahead of us at the end of the year.
Oh and despite having our worst 20 year period in history and those two having their best 20 year period:
Oregon/BSU combined National championships: 0
Colorado National championships: 1
Oregon/BSU combined Heismans: 1
Colorado Heismans: 2
Might want to hold off on that natty champs stat
