Does Te'o really deserve the Heisman?

Gotta love the rational of the haters. Te'o won the Nagurski, Butkus, and Lombardi Awards simply because he is from ND. Had nothing to do with how good of a player he is. I guess he is considered the 1st or 2nd linebacker in the draft because he plays for ND as well.
USMC, you really shouldn't be calling anyone out over getting "all worked up and pissed" after your classless display yesterday. Since you feel the need to try and call me out I guess you have something you can link showing where I have said anything bad about Manziel? We both know it is just another case of you making crap up again.

I will. Manziel was arrested this past summer. Nice role model. Heisman stands for excellence on and off the field. People will always recognize a Heisman winner with reverance. Two of the three invited guests possess this and it is not the one that likely will walk away with the award. Te'o is the best combination of Highly skilled player/leader that is out there today. You ask a kid who he wants to be and he may say Manziel. You ask any father who he wants his son to emulate it is Te'o.

Manziel may win the award but will be be remembered by TAMU alumni beyond strictly stats. Time will tell.

Haha. All you Domers can get off your high horse. All those past Heisman winners sure lived up to the mission statement.

Teo doesnt strike much fear into me

That's because you are an anonymous ass clown posting on the Internet. If you were on the opposite side of the line with pads on, I am sure you would be worried.

Butkus, Lombardi, Nagurski, and First Team All-American committee members and established voters think you are dumb.
Keep obsessing - it's entertaining

And y'all say Bama fans are annoying.

Well we all know the heisman goes to the offense. I personally hate an award who only gives it to one side of the field. Dominate players on both sides of the ball should be considered! This is a weak field TBH.

Wasn't Manziel also making racist comments when he was arrested. Nobody wants a racist to win the Heisman, if true.

1) No, he didn't
2) He got caught doing what the vast majority of college students do all the time
3) He was punished and has grown up since then

what people should focus on is who played to Heisman levels.
Manziel's stats bettered previous winners Tebow & Newton.

He did hand the arresting officer a fake id. I thought he was ranting about racist stuff or was with some guy who was hurling racial epithets.

The point was not that Te'o isn't a good player. He's a great player.
Heisman worthy? not a chance

So what's your excuse for doing the same to Johnny Football? That's a nice glass house you and dp live in.

I have no ill will towards Manziel. Should he win I have no gripes the same goes for Teo. I can see both players arguments for winning the Heisman. The mission statement of the Heisman should have a picture of Manti Teo it describes the person and player he is to a tee.
