I’ve been on the Vince Young bandwagon for quite a while. Since the time I first saw him as a redshirt freshman against Oklahoma, I knew he was a special talent.
What’s more, I saw him as the type of player who would revolutionize his position. Simply put, he’s the first to utilize such [...]

For those of you who are visiting for the first time, I thought I’d go over a few of the pet issues that I deal with most often on this site:
The Heismandments
The 10 Heismandments are, quite simply, the rules that govern the Heisman race. You can read them here. I go into depth [...]

Having database issues right now, so comments are down. Feel free to shoot me an email at heismanpundit@gmail.com and I will post your comments.

As noted by Sunday Morning Quarterback, the consensus out there is that former LSU offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher is about to save Florida State’s bacon.
Chalk me up as a skeptic on this subject.
Fisher was the offensive coordinator at LSU from 2000-2006. During that span, the Tigers managed to surpass the 30 points per game [...]

The off-season Heisman countdown continues, with Brian Brohm checking in at No. 10. Check out CSTV.com for my feature on Brohm and his Heisman chances.
If the senior quarterback makes a run at the Heisman, he’s expected to be one of the top picks in the next draft. Maybe even the first selection. He’s currently [...]

Is there any doubt that this season’s West Virginia offense will be the country’s most exciting to watch?
First, there is one of the leading Heisman candidates in Steve Slaton, who rushed for 1,744 yards and 16 TDs last year while averaging 7 yards per carry. He is a true breakaway back who thrives in [...]

One of the longest of longshots for the Heisman is Oklahoma State wide receiver Adarius Bowman.
Nonetheless, OSU has put out a website for Bowman to tout his candidacies for the Heisman, Maxwell, Camp and Biletnikoff Awards.
I think this site will end up being very effective in Bowman’s race to win the Biletnikoff.

In early-2005, I started writing about the exciting offensive trends that were quickly making headway around the country. More specifically, I believed that those trends were best manifested by the offensive schemes of five teams, a group which I referred to as the Gang of Five.
In general, though, the subject of offensive [...]

Ever notice that whenever a friend of tells you an outlandish tale, it somehow sounds more plausible if he says at the end of it: “Dude, true story!”?
It doesn’t make it true. But somehow, by saying “true story!”, we are supposed to be convinced.
So it is with Clarence Reece, a former football player [...]

Scheduling issues aside, the SEC is rapidly improving as a conference and, as I predicted a couple years ago, it is on the verge of actually living up to its year-in, year-out hype as the best conference.
Why is this?
Well, the league has finally got some coaches. No one wanted to believe that Urban Meyer [...]
