I think Williams was deserving of the heisman. I also think Hooker might have been deserving had he not gotten injured. Who knows? Hooker should absolutely have been invited to the ceremony. Stroud was deserving of recognition in the voting also. Probably a few more I’m not thinking ofI was not aware of that, but do you believe he was the best player of 2022? Anyone else?
I don't believe that the Trojans can make the playoffs this year. My remarks were more directed at the fact they are even considered. Last year they were in competition with Tenn before we lost to the gamecocks, and before they lost to the Utets twice. My rant was more about Caleb winning the Heisman. The pac 12 is dying right? I just think a Heisman winner should play on a good team.I understand your rant and support it. But USC has never made the playoff….right? And it’s been awhile since they dominated the PAC-12.
Not to worry, they aren’t making it this season either. Washington or Oregon might though. Who knows?
I appreciate you bringing stats/facts to the table rather than what many on this board would do, and just say the last sentence haha.Strongly disagree on generational talent. He is a talented player, but has been piss poor against decent defenses. Saw a post on reddit earlier this week that gave some stats. Prior to today, he has played 5 games against P5 top 25 defenses. 4 of those games were terrible (0, 1, 1, 1 TD vs 2, 1, 0, 3 INT), one was pretty good ('21 Ok St, 20-39 3TDs). That's it, 5 decent defenses in his entire college career prior to today. He's a slightly more athletic Spencer Rattler. Absolutely laughable to consider him a generational talent.
Caleb Williams remains the #1 draft pick in most projections. He's a really good QB, not generational, but he's really good and brings a whole lot to the table as a QB.Caleb is 7th right now in the Heisman chase. Don't understand all the hype. Still think Hooker deserved a shot last year. Sorry I have such a controversial view point. November I have the Vols one game out.
