Hard for me to take the Heisman seriously when it took Alabama almost 100 years to get their first winner
I mean...Alabama was not really known for its transformative football players. We had good players but until Saban came there were few years where we had a truly dominate athlete worthy of Heisman consideration:
Shaun Alexander (1999) - 7th
Jay Barker (1994) - 5th
David Palmer (1993) - 3rd
Eric Curry (1992) - 10th
Derrick Thomas (1988) - 10th
Bobby Humphrey (1987) - 10th
Cornelius Bennett (1986) - 7th
Walter Lewis (1983) - 9th
Steadman Shealey (1979) - 10th
Terry Davis (1972) - 5th
Johnny Musso (1971) - 4th
Steve Sloan (1965) - 10th
Lee Roy Jordan (1962) - 4th
Pat Trammell (1961) - 5th
Harry Gilmer (1947) - 5th
Harry Gilmer (1945) - 5th
Joe Kilgrow (1937) - 5th

Add to that during the Bear’s years, he absolutely hated individual trophies and was very vocal about it.
He repeatedly said football was a team sport and no 1 player was bigger than the team.
