I've seen that one thrown around before, but is it an actual, legit quote?

No, the exact quote was "seven or eight".

Here's some info that may shock you:

chuckie i've heard of, taysom i've heard of...but who is booker?

Ugh. Ok. Again, I'm not buying into hype, but here is an article to help your

i agree with everything you just said.

I think we both get it. Was a pleasure discussing this with you.

Virginia Ute

8/31/15 10:02am

From a place with actual Heisman history? Yup, hilarious that we would think we

joelvandyne

8/31/15 9:52am

Haha. Are you suggesting that BYU fans are superior judges of Heisman talent

Virginia Ute

8/31/15 9:54am

By comparison to Ute fans, yes.

joelvandyne

8/31/15 9:58am

Hahah ok. Question 1: how old when we're you in 1991?

It's Whittingham quote smack.

joelvandyne

I will concede we lose the Heisman smack dept...

Virginia Ute

8/31/15 10:08am

I'd suggest that we've seen the hype train that is needed

The Royal Punter

8/31/15 10:02am

You're right about the hype train. But we've all seen it.

Virginia Ute

8/31/15 10:10am

It would be pretty crazy to have a school that's never had a Top 3 Heisman

Gentleman Stan

8/31/15 9:54am

I don't disagree with that.

Virginia Ute

8/31/15 10:03am

Is it?

The Royal Punter

Do you agree with the OP or not?

Jeremy

I don't disagree.

Virginia Ute

8/31/15 10:11am

McMahon and Young aren't playing at BYU this year, otherwise I'd agree with you.

Virginia Ute
