Why doesn't Garrett Wolfe get any respect as a Heisman trophy candidate?

So what if he is from a small school. He is the leading rusher in the nation. He didn't do so well this last week, but he has been unbelieveable all year. He should be near the top of the Heisman trophy voting. What do you think?

    Well, 25 yards rushing against Western Michigan will probably be a BIG reason he isn't going to win or come close to the Heisman Trophy. I too, think he is a great back but people who vote don't understand how tough the MAC conference is and will look past his big day against Ohio St because the game was never really close. For him to have had a real chance at the Heisman his team would have to be unbeaten with a win over a "BCS" foe or have 1 loss with that being a close game to OSU.

    Put Garrett Wolfe in the SEC, Big 12, Big 10 or even the PAC 10 and he's not the leading rusher in the nation. Didn't he get shut down this weekend by some directional school in Michigan? Enough said.

    Wolfe is the subsequent Barry Sanders! Push Reggie Bush aside! Wolfe is the main underrated and unexposed participant in that us of a! For crist sake what he has been doing on the grid-iron is ridiculas, and that Ohio State pastime become astonishing for my area! He become a one guy instruct! And confirmed that he ought to accomplish against the actual communities in that us of a. Wolf could in all probability be the only working lower back who could positioned those varieties of numbers up against OSU. Garrett Wolfe jogs my memory lots however of Priest Holmes, what he lacks in length and height, he makes up for the quickest rattling juke strikes I genuinely have ever seen in my existence. and that i could say if he have been 6'0 tall, he could definetly be evaluate #a million or #2 %. interior the draft next 300 and sixty 5 days. For all those people who dont shop on with UNI or understand something approximately this youngster, can no longer say he should not be seen up their for Heisman. that is okay however, this youngster will instruct the NFL what he's all approximately! heavily, he places up ridiculas numbers each pastime! He did it final 300 and sixty 5 days, the 300 and sixty 5 days till now, and you notice now! Yeah he's enjoying for UNI, and which will in all probability be his downfall interior the race for the Heisman. yet i'm able to boldly say that... and dont get me incorrect... that Garrett Wolfe is a greater desirable RB than Adrian Peterson and Reggie Bush... i understand various the human beings on the planet would not accept as true with any of this. yet mark my phrases! on the tip of Wolf's NFL occupation he could post greater desirable numbers than Bush or Peterson. to no longer point out he is going to blow out Sanders college dashing yards call.

    Garrett Wolfe plays against schools who would lose to the local community colleges.. Put it this way.. I bet Garrett Wolfe couldnt even rush for over 50 yards against Hoover High School or even Laguna Beach Community College

    If he played against better competition or got his yards when NIU was actually in the game and not getting killed, he'd get his props, but until then, it won't happen.

  • He's a poser not a champion.
