If Marcus Lattimore had not been injured his sophomore and junior years, would he had won a Heisman?
If he was not injured, would he had been ranked ahead of George Rogers as the all time best USC running back?
Seems so long ago that Lattimore played, but I remember him being very impressive

I think he would have been invited to the ceremony.
He was staging a very impressive comeback his junior year before that Tennessee player dove into his knee.

One of my favorite non-LSU player at the time. He was impressive until he was injured. That sucked.

Idk but if he followed his heart and went to Auburn instead of listening to adults around him then he would've won a National Championship his freshman year, still had fresh legs as an upperclassmen because Dyer was there to share the load until he got kicked off, then could've played in another National Championship his senior year in 2013 when he probably would have won the Heisman... And he would still be playing in the NFL today.
But hey, at least he'll always be remembered in Columbia, SC like Stephen Davis said.

His splits are interesting. He was Heisman material vs UGA. He was average vs everyone else.

He had gotten off to a great start his So year leading the nation in rushing for about 5 game, but back to back to back games against Georiga, @LSU, and @Florida had him slowed with nagging injuries. Had he picked it back up for the end stretch instead of the devastating injury, he would have gotten an invite I think. Had he never gotten either injury, I think he would have certainly been in the mix his Junior year and had a good shot to win with the team we had.

Probably invited.
Not sure about won, considering the years RG3 and Manziel put up.
Prior to that you hadn’t seen QBs do that before.
We probably would have needed to win the conference or division that year for him to win.

I don't know about the Heisman but he would have made the NCAA cover.
