John W. Heisman in 1920, while coach at the University of Pennsylvania.

In 1934, Jay Berwanger, the halfback who was the first to win the Heisman,
struck the pose that served as the model for the trophy.

The tailback Archie Griffin, playing for Ohio State in 1974, is the only
two-time winner of the Heisman.

Silly me. I thought it was the New York Times that was fueling this debate, not the trophy.

ARCHIE ARCHIE ARCHIE

EDDIE EDDIE EDDIE EDDIE!!

Go Bucks!!!

Honestly, if White does happen to win the Heisman again, that isnt a bad thing. Look what the guy came back from. Look at what he has done. Sure this year has been a "down" year but hell he has 33 Tds....

Since the NCAA has guaranteed the BIG-12 a seat in in the National Championship Game and/or a Heisman Trophy, I won't be suprised if the overrated White beats out the underrated Leinart.

Can anybody tell me why Cal's Aaron Rodgers isn't a finalist???

John W. Heisman, for whom the most famous trophy in American sports is named

Lord Stanley might take issue with that, assuming you believe NHL hockey is an American sport.
