Heisman Selection Committee, Voters Getting Lazier and Lazier

Personally, I think its offensive that the Heisman trophy winner is always given to an offensive player, typically a quarterback. Often times the Heisman winner isn't really even one of the top three quarterbacks at the collegiate level. I am not saying that the Heisman should go to whatever player is most NFL ready, but I think its a crock that the quarterback for the best college team for a particular season, routinely wins the Heisman Trophy. Gino Torretta winning  in 1992 and Danny Wuerffel winning in 1996 seem to fit the bill here.
Torretta defeating Marshall Faulk for the Heisman in '92 is certainly one of the bigger travesties in Heisman history. Torretta was in a great system, and wasn't a great player. First of all, he is playing for one of the better programs, and had three star wide receivers (Kevin Williams, Lamar Thomas, Horace Copeland) to throw to and they were all drafted ahead of him in the NFL. Since Torretta was a senior, and Faulk a sophomore, many voters voted for Torretta, figuring Faulk would win the Heisman the following year. Ignorance is bliss. Wuerffel also had three great wide receivers (Ike Hilliard, Jacquez Green, Reidel Anthony) who would play in the NFL, so his winning the Heisman was the product of being in a great system at the time, not being a great player.

I understand that 15-20 years ago, they didnt have access to see the games like they do today, so I give the voters back then some leeway. But in today's age of technology, there should be dozens of Heisman contenders mentioned, and as a result there would often be fluctuations on who are the Heisman frontrunners.  Otherwise, I dont think that a defensive player will ever be in consideration to win the Heisman, because too many voters seem to go by the "monkey see, monkey do" mentality.

Going into last week's game against Tennessee, Alabama running back Mark Ingram was favored to win the Heisman. In case you didnt see the game, Ingram fumbled at a crucial time of Alabama's 12-10 win over Tennessee, and had to be bailed out by his DEFENSIVE teammate Terrence Cody blocking a field goal to end the game. Cody had two field goal blocks in the 4th quarter. At the moment, Ingram is still favored to walk away with the Heisman. Unbelievable.

There hasn't been one defensive player finish in the top five in Heisman voting since  '97 Heisman winner DB Charles Woodson, who also played wide receiver for Michigan.

The Heisman Trophy is supposed to be awarded to the best college football player, not the best offensive player for a team ranked in the top five.
