1). If what he did was that bad, why is he still playing?
2). If he's still playing and his performance is worthy of it, why shouldn't he win the Heisman?
3). Is ESPN really that big an opinion leader in college football? Do they really affect what happens in the game that much? If so, something is terribly wrong.

I still tink Smith is the best player, but he does back up his points well..

If you're not going to vote for a guy for Heisman because he's a cheater, why are you voting for him for other awards? If he takes $750, does he lose his FWAA vote? Or is it $1,000? Or can he take all he can get and still get that vote? I'd be pissed if I were counting FWAA votes.

I think some of his sanctimony dripped on me too. Blech.

Because he's good and OSU wants to win.

I trust you were being sarcastic.

So I guess if Troy Smith had just murdered somebody instead of taking money, this guy would vote for him.

Well it did work for OJ.

Forgive me, I don't give a rat's ass what they say on College Gameday and there's no reason anyone should.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, what a ****ing tool.
And OU as the place where corruption goes to die?

 

[HoopsMcCann]

chuck, that's pretty awesome...

i'm still voting for smith

"Smith will undoubtedly win the Heisman Trophy, thanks to ESPN's PR juggernaut."

(and for his superior, unmatched play on the field, dickweed.)

Kid paid his penance.

 

[Chuck~Taylor]

Yeah, he did his time,played great this year, and beat Michigan again.

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

Never heard of that columnist. Now I have.

Mission accomplished.

I wonder if this Guy voted for Reggie Bush last year because he took money and smeared the good name of the Heisman Trophy. If you are asking for Troy Smith not to win it then he should be asking Reggie Bush to give the award back.
