Dylan Sampson left off ESPN's midseason Heisman Watch

[Hairy Vols]

No way a guy from Boise St is going to win the Heisman. Nobody east of the Rockies has seen him play. ESPN will have to put on a huge push for that to happen. Ward and Hunter are probably the true frontrunners followed by Milroe and Dillon. If Tex keeps it up look for Ewers to enter the picture. UT can put an end to Milroe's chances on Saturday.

I’ve seen him play bc he is worth watching imo. He is crazy talented. He is putting up stats we have never seen. Man deserves a shot. Also I’m biased bc when I PCS’d to Washington I stopped in Boise to see the blue field. Nicest group of people I’ve ever met.

You have to have absolutely gargantuan, eye-popping stats to get Heisman pub at Boise St and he's got them. He's carried the ball 126 times and is averaging 10 yards per carry. It's a fresh set of downs every time he touches the ball, on average.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop with the Heisman talk.
It‘s a popularity contest and dredges up bad memories.

The bar is pretty high these days for winning the Heisman as a running back.

No player at Tennessee wins the Heisman. Proof-the greatest to play at UT - Peyton Manning didn't but should've
Besides Heisman Trophy is irrelevant anymore I think

12 players on the list including TWO from Bama. Sampson's 15 TD's have him in rare territory right now. Pitt's RB Desmond Reid made the list and he has 3 TD's and 200+ less yards than Sampson. Typical ESPN bias..

Well, he's fixin to get back on it!

Doesn't mean it's not true.

I was just surprised no one had posted it yet. It’s absolutely true. Every commentator calling our games slobber over the opposing team.
