I’m old enough to remember back in 1970 when Nebraska football star Johnnie Rogers got caught robbing a gas station. He was the only Heisman winner to have a felony record (which was vacated in 2013), and at one game some smart alecs brought a big “Texaco” sign and held it up near the goal posts to give him an incentive ;-)

“He was the only Heisman winner to have a felony record (which was vacated in 2013)...”

Convicted felons should never be in the running for the Heisman. Ever. By the way, he later served time for assault.
