Re: Heisman Rankings
[ QUOTE ]
If I were just ranking RBs based on what they've accomplished this season, I'd probably go: 1. Felix Jones 2. Darren McFadden 3. Jonathan Stewart 4. Rashard Mendenhall 5. Matt Forte 6. Jamaal Charles 7. Chris Wells 8. Javon Ringer 9. Kevin Smith 10. Mike Hart Hart's a good back, but he's nowhere near as good as the Michigan fans make him out to me. His biggest strength is that he can carry the ball a lot without fumbling, but even that's not very meaningful if he can't stay healthy. [/ QUOTE ] He's been pretty healthy throughout his career. He's not the fastest. He's not the biggest. But he still doesn't get tackled very easily and he is probably more similar to Barry Sanders than anyone else in college right now. I've had my doubts about him, but the more you see of him, the better you realize he is. |

Re: Heisman Rankings
One thing that really angers me. At this point in the year, wiht 75% of the season behind us, people should not be going from "Front-runner" to "Not a chance". I realize this is just mainstream media being stupid and over-reacting. But we have so much data at this point that one game, absent extremes like rushing for 300 yards or throwing 7 INTs, shouldn't move you around that much.
Of course, if Matt Ryan was the "clear front-runner" after the VaTech game then it's obvious trying to find logic in this process is silly. |

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] 1) Dixon 2)Some other guys [/ QUOTE ] This is about how I'd rank them. Even though I'm really rooting for Superman, his Georgia game killed his chances unless Dixon stumbles. [/ QUOTE ] Really? Tebow is really close IMHO & would be winning if it weren't for the UGA loss. [/ QUOTE ] TFG, It's to the point where Tebow and Dixon are sort of similar in terms of overall performance in a way. I think that the main difference is Jonathon Stewart vs. Kestahn Moore. Basically Tebow is UF's rushing game whereas Dixon has a great one instead. Either way, unless Oregon loses a couple games, I think their top 5 ranking and Tebow's injury plagued game are going to kill his chances. If they're even remotely close in the end, Dixon will get the nod because he isn't a sophomore. |

What you are talking about is "MVP of college football" or something inane that is actually based on how good his team is and the schedule they play. I'd be willing to say that the 5 best RBs are the 5 best RB prospects in the NFL, and its probably in exact order. This is not true for, say QB, as much as RB, though. |

Re: Heisman Rankings
My 2 cents here. I don't think Hart has a chance to win the Heisman and from what I've heard he isn't really a top NFL prospect, due to his lack of speed. Typically, as others have mentioned, the top collegiate RBs make top picks in the NFL. I think Hart is an exception. He's had a really good college career, but I don't think he will be a high draft pick (injuries, lack of speed). McFadden is def better.
