Re: Heisman Trophy

I'll also add there's a lot of push from the past heisman winners (who all get a vote) to keep the trophy being a singular occurance - no one's won it twice

Archie Griffin won it twice. I think somebody else did back in 40's too but I could be wrong on that.

You're right - "Only 1 player, Archie Griffin, a running back for Ohio State, has won 2 Heisman Trophies; he did so in 1974 and 1975."
I still think thats a factor - previous winners won't want to create a two-time heisman winner, whether or not its never happened or has only happened once.
I also think Bush is pretty clearly the best player in college football right now. If I had a vote, I'd vote for Quinn over Leinart if I were voting for a QB - he's got better stats and is in my opinion more valuable to his team (which is vastly exceeding expectations this year in strong part due to his play, compared to USC which everyone knew would be a frontrunner).
