Have to think it's either McDermott or Winston. I give the nod to Doug.

Has to be Winston for 2 reasons-
1 his team won a national championship while McDermott flamed out early in the NCAA tournament
2 he plays baseball as well as football.

Yea McDermott has got this in the bag.

1. Winston is a rapist
2. McDermott is classy
3. McDermott is white
3b. McDermott is legitimately good and not just another "white hope"

It is 2014 not 1954, why are you bringing race into this?

Is this is done strictly by fan voting, Winston will win based on winning the Heisman and name recognition. Doug should get it if fan voting is just part of the equation.

I am not saying him being white would help him win because of racism, just that it makes him a minority in the sport. No different than if he were Asian or Latino, people like rooting for the under dogs (myself included.)

I love Doug, but this award will be a joke if Winston does not win it. Took all the individual awards while leading his team to the national title.

I just can't see ESPN giving an award to a rapist. But maybe I am giving them too much credit.

Do you actually think he is a rapist?

If you do, then yes, I think that is a legitimate argument.

I, however, don't believe he is a rapist. So, I guess, i should have qualified my statement with that.
