I don't think Tebow deserved a ride, but leadership is a big deal in the Heisman.

I think CJ's lack of rushing yards and being on a unranked, un-hyped team hurt him the most, but just like a few others said, there are alot of backs out there with WAY more yards (in a play, not a free-for-all return, you know - in the trenches RUNNING the ball against timely defense). Gearhart has like 1700 yards on the season. Not including any of his all purpose yards. I am not going to bash on CJ, any team would be happy to have them in the backfield. Just think if he would have went to Florida, he would have either been through more strength training and not so apt to jump out of bounds, and he would have been on a media hyped team.

The biggest thing that hurt CJ was being on the roster at Clemson University. that is not a dig, he could have had those yards at almost any unranked school, and be noticed just as little. (USC included)

How dare you guys discount Sue, dammit this is what pisses me off. He plays in the big 12 for Nebraska unless you have gameplan you haven't seen much of him here. That team has hardly any offense, and Sue and #33 have kept them in every ball game this year. He is the most deserving defensive guy in the NCAA. (Compare to David Pollack)

Ingram deserves this trophy. You look at a few key alabama games, where the QB was having an off game, Saban put ingram in the wildcat direct snap game, and he single handedly put at least 4 games this year on his shoulders and fuggin won em. He is the leader, the rusher, the all purpose guy of 2009. And after running all over the fair haired child of Gainsville (florida). It shows you that he is the most deserved.
