He's got the best chance of anyone not in the P5 since Ty Detmer. Still won't win.

This article is mostly correct but I think he could start anywhere, if not at qb they'd find a place for him.

Re: Taysom Hill will not win the Heisman......
................and it looks like we are at that point in the preseason where the bloggers and talking heads are staking out the high-probability positions so they can say "I-told-you-so" next off-season.
In other news: Bronson Kaufusi won't set a single season sacks record and won't get drafted as high as Ziggy, Fred Warner won't reproduce KVN's Jr season campaign, and BYU won't go undefeated--call me a prophet when these shocking predictions come to fruition.

Re: Taysom Hill will not win the Heisman......
What a terrible article. Is this his attempt at converting all BYU fans into realists? Let's set our expectations so low that if we finish over .500 we can all feel good about it. After all it's not the best team that wins. It's the team with the most NFL drafted players that always wins. So there is no way any team outside the P5 conf could ever win a major award.
His logic sounds good but when you think about it they are mostly just regurgitated ideas from talking heads. Only eastern players win it. Somebody forgot to tell Linert, Palmer, Bush, and Mariota that they should have played in the East. BTW since 2000 only four players playing their home games on EST have won it.
One thing that did catch my eye. The comment about 2015 Ohio State. I guess he is predicting an OSU player winning it this year. I'm sure being an OSU grad has nothing to do with it.
Here really lost me though when he said TH has to make huge jumps in his level of play. So 3000k passing and 1300k rushing are pedestrian? I guess it was the 66% comp that dropped him. Mariota blew him away (68%). Winston finished at 65%. I would say a significant jump by Taysom would be nice. Say 4000+ passing and 1500 rushing would be nice.
But alas TH has no chance if he only slightly improves. I guess I'll go bow at a p5 alter and pray that he at least gets one vote and that BYU is at least somewhat competitive against such superior talent.

Hmm which will take me longer to feel comfortable wearing in public. My "Hill for Heisman" shirt or my "I agree with Max" shirt?
Finally figured out how to get the Rich Rod quote off my signature that randomly showed up! Sorry if you thought I stole it from you……..whoever it was that used to have it
