He didn't weigh 215 maybe 205 but not 215. It is also widely rumored he was one of the first guys in the SEC to experiment with anabolic steroids. Regardless, Cannon was a deserving Heisman winner and a great athlete.

If you saw him run, on a cinder track, you would have thought he weighed 240 compared to who he was running against. He looked like the pictures of Jim Thorpe. He was bigger than most linemen... and was widely advertised as 215 lbs. whatever...
