Re: HOOK 'EM HORNS!!!!

I can not be convinced that Young should've won the Heisman.
It comes down to the fact that the Heisman is given to the Most Outstanding college player, not the most valuable.
It is the same type of thing as the MLB.
If it was the most valuable player, it definitely is Young, because without him, Texas is probably in the Teens Rank wise.

I also think you cant compare a QB to a RB.
Young touched the ball everytime the Texas offense ran a play.
He had the option of passing, running or handing off each time.
Bush would get the ball and have to run it.
Thats it.

Bush also had to split his time with White.
Before the game, I had been telling my friends that White is the bigger threat in the game, because he was not being paid that much attention to, compared to Bush.

Now with him coming out of college and being turned into a different position player, im not sure about.
I was discussing this earlier today with my friends, and its kind of hard to decide.
Options:
RB-Way too big of a player.
WR-Doesnt have the hands or speed(top speed that is).
TE-Again, the hands, and I highly doubt he would be used for blocking.
LB-He's got the size and speed for a Linebacker. He also knows how a QB thinks.

He will be a Quarterback in the NFL. It is very hard to see him elsewhere.


Now the question is, if you are so high on Young, who do the Texans take #1.
Right now, I am thinking the Titans are going to want to get Leinart if they take a QB. Leinart gets to reunite with Norm Chow. Therefore, I see them either trading with the Saints or staying put and the Saints taking Young.

Texans end up with Bush. There will be talk about Young/Leinart, but I think they have invested too much into Carr and will keep him.
Saints take Young. The style Young plays is very flashy and attractive to the owners. He will make the team big bucks, which ultimately the Saints will be looking for over anything.
Titans take Leinart. Too good a fit not to take him.

Then if White declares, where does he go?
