From the Heisman website, which by the way I had never read before:
Based on this criteria the ONLY correct choice is AJ. Says NOTHING about the MOST outstanding player. I agree AJ doesn't fit that criteria, but more than any of the others he fits the written criteria for the award
quote:
The Heisman Memorial Trophy annually recognizes the outstanding college football player whose performance best exhibits the pursuit of excellence with integrity. Winners epitomize great ability combined with diligence, perseverance, and hard work. The Heisman Trophy Trust ensures the continuation and integrity of this award. The Trust, furthermore, has a charitable mission to support amateur athletics and to provide greater opportunities to the youth of our country. Our goal through these charitable endeavors is for the Heisman Trophy to symbolize the fostering of a sense of community responsibility and service to our youth, especially those disadvantaged or afflicted.

Agreed. And one of the reasons I started the thread... everyone is under the impression that the award can only go to a player who had the best single season.

You do realize that Jameis Winston has NEVER lost a college football game right?
Actually AJ's win % is on 95 or so while Winston's is 100.
