Jahvid Best, Cal

Clausen? lmao Of course with that schedule he should have the stats but still won’t. Besides that he ain’t a winnin on a losin team like the Golden Boy did in ’56. That’s two screwing the Heisman bunch has given Tennessee. But hey that would be funny had it not been a domer kid winnin it.
Floridan
All reasonable choices, but here’s a dark horse: John Brantley, Florida’s backup QB.
I think he’ll get enough playing time in 09 to get noticed, setting the stage for 2010. He’s a much better passer than Tebow (and that’s no knock on Tebow) and would be starting on all but a handful of D1 teams this year.
If the Gators reload after the Tebow-Spikes era, Brantley could be in the running.

Aaron Corp?
Who has never started a game in college and was a mid level recruit by SC?
Really?
Heismanpundit
Yes, Aaron Corp. If he has a good season this year (and there’s no reason to think he won’t), then he will be a prime contender the following year.
BTW, Corp was a highly-recruited QB and he brings an element to USC that has not been seen in recent years–mobility.

What do you think about Robert Griffin’s chances in 2010/2011 if Baylor can manage to have a few 8-win seasons?

2009 Big 10 Offensive Player of the Year, John Clay. He put up decent numbers in his first full season as a starter this year. Next year, the offensive line will be more experienced and so will he. Look for Ron Dayne-like numbers
Bobby Perdue
Arkansas had the fourth hardest schedule this year. They will be even better next season. Ryan Mallett easily one to consider.
wanger
baylor had more problemsthis year than just losing robert griffin. it means briles has a tougher job ahead of him than he originally thought and i doubt grifin will be able to play like he did as a freshman behind those great linemen.
on the other hand jerrod johnson from texas A&M put up school record numbers behind a crappy offensive line.

Jerrod Johnson for sure

I agree with Bobby Perdue. Mallet from Arkansas should be on everyone’s Heisman watch list. He was the top QB in the SEC last year and has 4 of the top receivers in the SEC to throw this year.

How you can have Devine as a Heisman candidate but not have the best RB in the Big East, Dion Lewis, on that list is beyond laughable. If Devine were on the Pitt roster, he’d be on the bench and the 3rd best RB ON THE PITT TEAM! But I guess any moron can make a list, as you did.
Pat
Haha, Devine has more talent than lewis easily. Just wait and see this year when we whoop u guys again in the brawl!
