@ArenaGridiron @RealSkipBayless @CALEBcsw did you consider asking @ChuckLiddell if you could use the ICEMAN name? #stupidargument

[Brad North @bn69me]

@M_Shelton33 Am I blind or is 5 waving his arm anytime we’re taking a free throw? Are they allowed to do that? It’s in the act of the free throw

[Brad North @bn69me]

@WallaceSmitty @GreatDayTarHeel @Jordonbella Could you argue the other way? Pablo picking on the gf of a coach who’s had tremendous success and now coaching a team with minor bowl aspirations?

[Brad North @bn69me]

@RickDorsey262 @slmandel What about when we beat U of in 2015 at Soldier Field?

[Brad North @bn69me]

@WildcatReport They’re doing what we wanted them to do earlier in the season now… and when it doesn’t make sense

[Brad North @bn69me]

@WildcatReport Terrible officiating all game

[Brad North @bn69me]

@901Bo_ @ptak_attack17 Hunter deserved it last year. 2 way player with fantastic stats on both side. He was the quintessential Heisman winner, but, yes! I’d love an actual defensive player who had the year of years of consistent experience and is having the best year in defensive player history

[Brad North @bn69me]

@901Bo_ @ptak_attack17 Every team does this though. Mendoza at IU is in for an extra series or two to pad stats… 35 total TDs in games that 80% are blowouts… if Tech wants to give Rodriguez the ball on a GL situation to score, do it. It’s part of the game to get votes. That TD probably helps his case

[Brad North @bn69me]

@901Bo_ @ptak_attack17 Heisman is a total joke. It’s the Davey O’Brien 2.0. I get where you’re coming from, and I haven’t seen that argument on my TL. I don’t think he wins, despite having a generational year. A lot of defensive players go under the radar because of great offensive performances

[Brad North @bn69me]

@ptak_attack17 @901Bo_ Great point. Suh had a phenomenal ‘09 season with 12 sacks as an interior DL. For him to finish 4th, behind Ingram, Gerhart, and McCoy, fair. But then you look at Woodson that won in ‘97 over Peyton Manning. With 7 INT and no TDs. Rodriguez earns a conversation for the Heisman

[Brad North @bn69me]

@901Bo_ @ptak_attack17 My question is why is that? I think Jacob Rodriguez is the best player in college. Statistically, he leads most defensive categories, but since he’s a defensive player, he probably won’t win. So, giving him an offensive TD, I don’t have an issue. That’s how you get on the ballet

[Brad North @bn69me]

@901Bo_ @ptak_attack17 That’s not a fair argument. I don’t think Tech was insinuating the “he was a backup QB” narrative. If we’re gonna call it what it is, the Heisman has been won by a QB/RB/WR since 1998. Woodson won it over Peyton Manning and Randy Moss in ‘97. He was the last defensive player

[Brad North @bn69me]

@BIGFATBETSS @insidenu I agree with your latter two points. More so, point one vs point two because we’ve seen Stone successful in other offenses… however, disagree with your Braun take. He’s doing a great job. For what is expected of NU, he’s exceeded. I’m a Fitz guy, and Braun’s record says it all.

[Brad North @bn69me]

@901Bo_ @ptak_attack17 Giving a defensive player an offensive stat to “pad stats” for a traditionally offensive award. I’m fine with it. Last I checked, the Heisman is for the best player, not the best QB/RB/WR

[Brad North @bn69me]

@FightOnRusty @WildcatReport Got it. That was the initial question. There should have been a penalty called on the actual punter when they took the field. Again, not that any of it would have mattered. The outcome would have been the same

[Brad North @bn69me]

@FightOnRusty @WildcatReport But the check in has to be announced for eligibility reasons. It’s the same thing that happened in the Dallas/Detroit game last year. #70 lines up as an eligible receiver an it was announced so both teams were aware. I don’t believe it was announced during that game

[Brad North @bn69me]

@FightOnRusty @WildcatReport But not to line up at the same position

[Brad North @bn69me]

@FightOnRusty @WildcatReport Totally, but you have to have rosters and numbers set the week of. That I do believe is a rule. Unless there’s a jersey that’s torn, the jersey that’s on the program and reports do that week needs to be the jersey you play the game in.

[Brad North @bn69me]

@FightOnRusty @WildcatReport But wouldn’t that mean when the punter came out it should have been? Legit question. Not meant as an argument. I don’t think it would have affected the outcome either way, but generally curious
