[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 210663, member: 1640"] Speaking of the Heisman, where do people stand on the criteria for winning it? Do you favor the original intention of the Heisman or how it is interpreted today? For instance, should academics be part of it and should it be awarded to the most valuable leader on the team or should it simply go to a running back or quarterback who puts up the gaudiest numbers? I ask because it seems clear to me that many players who won the Heisman in the past would not win today because the meaning of the Heisman is different today. Roger Staubach was a gifted, game changing athlete who led Navy to victories over teams like Notre Dame at a time when service academies were not expected to be able to compete with the big boys. But his stats, which do not adequately measure the impact he has on his team, look very pedestrian compared to winners of the Heisman today. [/QUOTE]
