Heismanpundit

So we see in this piece by Emily Badger of the Orlando Sentinel. As usual, not only the writer, but the subjects of the article–the Sports Information Directors–would be well served by reading The Heismandments. One amusing quote is by USC SID Tim Tessalone, who unwittingly proves the Heismandments’ case that a highly-ranked school that [...]

The Onion is almost always too funny for words, but I thought I’d share an especially funny link that paints a situation that we’ve all been through at some point.

If we were Gator fans, we’d be feeling pretty good right now. As we stated earlier, Florida is about to be the new addition to the ‘Gang of Five’–the teams that were the elite offenses in college football last season.

Why would Collegefootballnews.com even go through this pointless exercise of ranking the top 100 Heisman candidates for 2005? Not even we would go that far. Players 81-100 are the guys who have no shot but will put up big numbers. So, why even mention that they don’t have a shot? Why not just have a [...]
