5 of the top 8 Heisman favorites have a Trojan connection. incredible tidbit that demonstrates the power and reach of Trojan recruiting at QB U. None gave the Bruins or Ducks a sniff. JT, Slovis,Corral and Young all committed to SC at one time. DJ ugaileoele would h@ve committed if we hadn’t preferred Young
DJ’s dad says he cried when SC offered his son. Side note: another son is a star at Bosco, Trojan lock. pete would have stacked JT,Corral, DJ and Young But would have never been looking for a plan B diamond in the rough, under the radar guy like Slovis. pete didn’t need to do that.
It probably depends on who Vegas lists as the betting favorites
Since when is a "potential Heisman candidate" a "Heisman favorite"?
Hey, and here I thought I was the only one on this board allowed to puff-out my chest!!! What gives?? 😉
Keep an eye on: Kayvon Thibs, already a likely top 10 NFL pick next year (can ducks do it 3 years in a row??), has gone on record saying he wants to win the Heisman this year. He won't, of course. But always fun to have a non-offensive player with the bravado to think he can somehow get into the running!
And that is why they play the games
Slovis will be out of the running by October unfortunately. JT made a very wise move transfering out of sc and getting as far away from Gomer as he could.

Many are called few are Trojan
Quite a reach when you count former Trojan decommitments.
