Heisman Finalists Named:

**dualthreat** · 12-06-2010, 05:19 PM

Cam Newton
LaMichael James
Kellen Moore
Andrew Luck

I'm really glad they allowed Luck to go. He had a great year and deserves it. My guess on the final vote:

Newton slight edge over #2
stanzi
James
Luck
Moore

stanzi of course is my dark horse/wild card pick

**gocubs2118** · 12-06-2010, 05:21 PM

Damn, I thought Stanzi was for sure going to be a finalist. All my Hawk friends told me so.

He was the unanimous selection in Week 1. This is just a vote to see who gets second place of course.

In week one yes. By the last week of the year everyone had turned on him...some fan base they have there.

You'd better hope his middle name is Murkowski.

Interesting story here:

Two Heisman voters boycott Newton

Hopefully enough people decided to sit Cam in their voting. I'd hate to see the trophy returned twice in a decade. Not so much because I care about the sanctity of the Heisman or anything, but I hate when it goes to professionals like Cam rather than actual amateur athletes.

That's where I'm at. Once the NCAA made their tacit admission of the cheating, I think Cam needs to lose this thing.

This won't happen b/c most voters saw how the NCAA cleared him of everything. My prediction is Newton wins in a landslide.

Yes, Cam will win it hands down.

I honestly had a 'friend' say earlier in the year, "if ricky stanzi doesnt win the heisman this year i am going to literally kill myself."

**cycloneman003** · 12-07-2010, 01:57 AM

cam with win it, but lamichael james has been damn good

**Cytom5** · 12-07-2010, 03:00 AM

where is AA at?

I thought they already gave the heisman to Stanzi? Did I miss the memo :>)

**spierceisu** · 12-07-2010, 07:35 AM

I know that if you ignore the eligibility part, Cam Newton does deserve the Heisman. I am getting kind of sick of the comments by announcers though. During the SEC championship, one of the announcers said either vote for Cam or just obstain. I guess they might as well not even invite anyone else and just make the whole ceremony about him. No one is even talking about the other guys.

At least this year the committee is inviting a full list. I remember a few years back when it was Leinhart, Bush and Young. They could at least of invited the full 5. Even if they are not going to win, at least give some others the honor of getting invited. Does this bother anyone else but me?
