Andre Ware won in 1989 to be come 1st black QB. The year Jim Brown definitely should have won it, it was given to the golden boy Paul Hornung of Notre Dame.

Where are the Aikman's. Marino, Elway, Montana, Young. I guess Favre is in there, he was good and kind of still is. I liked Staubach and Unitus too. Too many to list. Nameth. Bradshaw.

The one and only NEBRASKA CORNHUSKERS.  In 1970 and 1971 Bob Devaney won the championships. In 1994,1995,1997 Tom Osborne won those championships. I'm looking for the Huskers to have a great season this year. GO HUSKERS!!!!!!!

Mike Rozier won the Heisman in 1983. He was a running back for the University of Nebraska. Then, he held the Nebraska scoring and rushing records, he may still be the record holder.

Jason Campbell.  He was a four year starter at Auburn University.  His first three years were rocky.  He didn't look comfortable on the field and he made alot of mistakes.  His senior year he really came around.  He was #1 in the SEC in completion percentage and led the Tigers to an undefeated season.  The 'Skins picked him up as the 25th pick in the 1st round of the 2005 draft.

Ohio State will be the national champion, led by Troy Smith. The LBs will be just fine. Ted Ginn for Heisman!

Brady Quinn will be the first one.  There has been so much hype around him.\nb

Julius Peppers of course. He ran a 4.4 -4.55 in the 40.

Vince Young. Best QB legs in the NCAA.

Deuce has more acclaimation than Reggie, sure he did well in college- but how many big name college RBs couldn't hack it in the NFL? I give Deuce the advantage, and yes he will start.

Maybe Henry McDonald.  Here's the quote and the link is in sources\n"In 1911 another African-American, Henry McDonald, began a six-year career as running back with the Rochester Jeffersons. 1919 saw the beginning of the sport's first governing organization, the American Professional Football Association (APFA), which was replaced three years later by the National Football League. Both leagues signed Black players. Robert "Rube" Marshall played tight end for the Rock Island Independents from 1919 to 1921, and Frederick "Fritz" Pollard had three years of action with the Akron Pros. Pollard became the first African-American professional head coach when he was signed by Akron in 1920. He went on to coach at Milwaukee (1922), Hammond (1923-1924), and again at Akron in 1925-1926. "

Troy is, without a doubt, the best player in College Football today. That being said, let's look at how other Heisman QB's have fared in the NFL. Jason White. Eric Crouch. Chris Weinke. Danny Wuerfel. Notice a pattern? Heisman flops. Another pattern? They're all drop-back, "traditional" QB's. But Troy has the legs, too. He can take a game into a whole different dimension. Troy's speed makes him a whole different category: the QB scrambler. Troy is the second mainstream running QB to be considered a potential pro threat. The first? Mike Vick.  But Vick wasn't even close to this good in college. So I think Troy will be succesful in the NFL. He's got great decision-making skills, and he's not having difficulty as a college QB. Look back at the Michigan game. Or the Texas game. He makes some of the nation's best DB's look positively ameteur. Troy should lead a productive career starting for an NFL team (Detroit? Oakland? Cleveland?). Perhaps he'll be the first of his breed to gain top-tier status. All in all, his prospects are ripe for the NFL.

I have to go with Barry Sander. Being from Detroit, all I had to watch growing up was the lions, atleast Barry made me cheer. He was so elusive, so tricky with the best moves that I could not help but love football on sundays. Face it, with a team like Detroit, no one can argue that Barry was the best RB of all time. Let me hit you with so info all you Nay-Sayers\n\n Second-leading rusher of all time (15,269 yards).\n Holds all-time NFL record for consecutive 1,000-yard seasons (10, 1989-1998).\n Tied for NFL record for total 1,000-yard rushing seasons (10).\n Holds Detroit Lions records for most yards rushing (15,269), most touchdowns (109) and most rushing touchdowns (99).\n 10-time Pro Bowl selection (1989-1998 seasons)\n Nine-time Pro Bowl participant (missed 1993 due to injury)\n Five-time NFC rushing leader\n Holds NFL single-season records for most 100-yard rushing games and most consecutive 100-yard games (14 in 1997)..\n 1997 Player of the Year.\n 1989 NFL Rookie of the Year.\n 1988 Heisman Trophy winner.
