Crouch!! Talk about a most pathetic pick! Grossman had a ton better stats. Nebraska is such a corrupt school.

Nebraska is such a corrupt school. Uh, they did not vote Crouch as the winner. The DAC did...

Sorry to see that you're getting flak from Nebraska fans that can't see reality. Nebraska is corrupt. There are NFL teams that refuse to draft Nebraska players because so many of them are discipline cases. There are a lot of Nebraska alumni football players that should be in prison.
Back a few years ago, it was revealed that Nebraska was awarding college degrees to ball players that literally couldn't read and write. The administration of the school, when they caught some flak, wasn't the slightest bit apologetic. They were indignant that the public would have the terrible nerve to question their judgement. The administration of the Nebraska Cornhuskers are like the Clintons. They can do anything they want and their loyalists will back them. I'm not sure if the Nebraska loyalists are as insane as the IU backers, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Heisman "voting" is a farce. Crouch is a very good option quarterback, but (as a passer) he's mediocre at best, as illustrated in the Colorado game. I find it strange that most Heisman voters would give the trophy to a QB who will never play that position at the NFL level. Crouch is a terrific athlete, but he won't even make an NFL practice squad as a QB.....

I'm not a Nebraska fan, but Crouch is a STUD. He never slides, or goes out of bounds. He hits somebody EVERY play. His all around running and passing make him a superb Heismann pick. The rest of those guys were wooses.

Should have been David Carr from Fresno State. 4000 yards plus, they beat Colorado and Wisconsin.
To: VA Advogado
Agree Grossman has better passing stats. Carr has stats even slightly better than Grossman's. Crouch's running has to be factored in here somehow too.
Thought Grossman maybe should have won here.

Grossman isn't a senior, that must be part of it.

Nebraska is such a corrupt school. Define corrupt, in this context.

Nebraska?
Check this. LSU had a run in with the NCAA. A basketball player accused the program of shenanigans. The NCAA found no administrative fault, only a few people who were boosters and a coach. The coach left, the boosters were banned as a result. The school was fined, lost scholarships and lost any post-season play. The player who turned LSU in, and had originally been in on the corruption, was allowed to transfer to Kansas(coincidentally not far from NCAA headquarters) and was never punished.
The next year Notre Dame was found out to have the same problem except the admin was in on it too. They got a slap on the wrist.
Face it, College sports are corrupt period!!!

Nebraska IS NOT A CORRUPT SCHOOL! We haved more all Americans than any other school in history. We have more graduate than any other school. We have NEVER been fined or punished for breaking an NCAA rule! ALL team members are REQUIRED to do memtoring work with troubled teens. ALL team members are required to work within the community somehow. Those who break the rules are out. And those who break the rules are hardly EVER from Nebraska, they usually are imported from another state!
