Fournette is partially a product of his team and his surrounding cast opening holes for him. TCU is a product of Boykin. They would be nowhere without him. Boykin deserves the Heisman based on being the most valuable player to his team the last two years. I don't think it's even close. But TCU isn't the SEC SEC SEC, and Boykin has gotten next to nothing in the way of heisman promotion either from himself or his school. Which is part of the reason why Fournette is -300.

- Heisman Trophy must have a ultimate winner. If one or more share award, prices are split by # of winning wagers. Max wager is $300. All Players listed are action.If player is hurt and doesn't play in season, wager is graded a losing wager.
No sir.
Fournette was the #1 recruit in college football regardless of position and the top running back prospect In over 30 years. Even bigger then Peterson .Fournette is not a product of no system .
He is the real deal and the best running back I've ever seen in college football.
And this trophy has nothing to do with MVP.
The award goes to the best player in college football period .
If the best player in the nation playes on an 0-12 team so what .
And besides.
Even if it was an MVP award Fournette would probably win anyway because LSU would not be the #2 team in the nation without him.

A football player shouldn't be judged by his recruiting number or how big of a prospect he is. He should be judged by how valuable he has been to his team over his career. And I think Boykin is a MUCH more valuable player to his team's success than Fournette is to LSU. But everybody is entitled to their opinion.
If LSU did not have Fournette they would have lost to both Mississippi St and Florida and maybe even Western Kentucky .
So even your MVP argument does not hold up.
Fournette is at least as valuable or more valuable to LSU as Boykin is to TCU.
But once again.
This award has nothing to do with MVP.
Never had.
There have been several winners that played on teams with only 6 or 7 wins.
So stop trying to make this an MVP award because it's not.
Never has been.
The award is given to the best player in college football period.
Thats what it says on the website.
And based on past voting that's the way it's always been.
So your MVP argument is pointless and meaningless .
But like I said even if MVP was a consideration Fournette would still have the edge.
Nobody was calling LSU a serious national champion contender before the season.
He has carried this team to the #2 position in the country.

GS.....Boykin is a product of every program in the b12 refusing to recruit and hire defensive personnel. They way that conference embraces the dismissal of playing defense as a whole is a huge negative in promoting offensive players in b12 for Heisman. They have an unfair advantage because the other guys on the list have to work for production instead of scoring every other play.
And more on all this MVP talk.
I believe TCU was ranked #2 or #3 in week 1.
And LSU was ranked #11 or #12.
So TCU was more highly regarded then LSU was before the season started.
So now LSU is ranked higher then TCU so this makes the case for Fournette being a bigger MVP then Boykin even if this was an MVP award which its not.
But even if it was Fournette would still be the winner.
TCU has dropped in the rankings while LSU had come up and passed TCU.
So I don't see a single case anyone can make for Boykin no matter what metric you use.
