Jeremiyah Love is unquestionably the best CFB player. The real Q: "Is the Heisman still relevant?"
The award has been turned into an illegitimate manipulative marketing tool by ESPN, etc..
The Heisman voters have a chance to refocus themselves on their mission.
I doubt that they do it, but they have their chance.
In the meantime, we all know. Everyone knpws....the lovers and haters alike.

I have changed my tune, I think he’s gonna win it if he has a good game this week
Sayin and Mendoza are both pretty blah. I don’t expect either of them to do anything spectacular the next few games. Both will likely be steady……
I feel like the media is looking for reasons to vote for someone and Love keeps giving them highlights.

Where did Fernando Mendoza come from. A lowly 2 star
He was the 140th ranked quarterback as a recruit. Amazing.

I love these stories. Tom Brady # 299 and so on

He should light up Purdue—but I expect IU to get steamrolled by tOSU in the conference championship

The (NY) Downtown Athletic Club, where the award originated, closed in 2002. 9/11 was the last straw
It's kind of silly to maintain it...given what College Football has become and is becoming.
Notre Dame should nominate Love for the Nobel Peace Prize

What's so funny about Peace...Love...and understanding...?
More Love for Jeremyah...
...breaking down his unique combination of Vision, Quick Decision Making, Strength, Athleticism...and, of course, Speed.
Never has been, since it's primarily a QB award even when another position player deserves it.

There have been 52 Non-QB Heisman Winners...including Leon Hart and Tim Brown...could happen for JL.

Could not agree more but the odds don't favor him. IMO he's the best player in CFB but
Mendoza will likely win it---or another QB.
Since 2000: 20 QB's, 3 RB's and 2 WR's.

So you say he still has a chance?...(Credit to Jim Carey)

WOW, thanks

If he has a similar game against Stanford as Syr, I think he'll finish top 2.
Hard to beat a QB though, and if Jeanty didn't win it last year, it seems like Love is in for some tough sledding. Although for him, I'm hoping he's health through the playoffs, and gets a high draft pick. He deserves it.
I love (no pun intended) both our RB's but if Love didn't platoon, his stats would be insane. It
has been probably since the early 90's where ND has had two such incredible RB's. It's so nice to see the talent upgrade. MF and his staff have done a great job with recruiting.
Love is 2nd in the nation in TD's with only half the snaps.

Agreed.

Whose body of work is better than Love's?

RB , nobody!

Actually, there is no need for your qualifier "RB'". Nobody at any other position compares.
Just good, but not great QB's on the teams with the highest rankings.
^^^^^^^ Thank you. My view as well.

He deserves it. Still believe our start ruined his chances...

If tOSU loses to UM and IU loses the B10 championship game to Oregon, then Love has a shot.

Appears that and it’s somewhat of what does he do for the team. Thus the enamor with IU’s QB and
their record.
Nobody. But, as you point out, it's a QB award, AND the media has a hardon for Mendoza, who
frankly, isn't all that impressive, nor is Indiana's schedule. But they had that comeback win against PSU, so he's the greatest thing since sliced bread.
It's nice to see the media be forced to turn their attention to Love. He is getting a lot of hype from the ground up.
It's as relevant as the Rock & Roll HOF. Paul Hornung made mention when he won it.
