The trophy does not serve as a representation of a collegiate player's chances in professional leagues, but is rather an accolade for their accomplishments in college. However, essentially every Heisman winner goes on to play in the NFL, and most are among the top draft picks. Winning the Heisman Trophy does not guarantee future success at the NFL level. Only eight winners of the Heisman are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame,[1] but four winners have also been named Most Valuable Player in a Super Bowl. The Pro Football Hall of Fame is the Hall of fame of the National Football League (NFL professional American football, the Super Bowl is the Championship game of the National Football League (NFL
The trophy itself is modeled after Ed Smith, a leading player in 1934 for the now defunct New York University football team by sculptor Frank Eliscu.

Selection
The prestige in the award stems from a number of factors. Balloting is open for all football players in all divisions of college football, though winners usually represent Division I FBS schools. Division I (or D-I) is the highest level of intercollegiate athletics sanctioned by the National Collegiate Athletic Association in the United States The closest that a player outside of the modern Division I FBS came to winning the Heisman is third place. Steve McNair, from Division I-AA (now Division I FCS) Alcorn State, finished third in the voting in 1994. Steve LaTreal McNair (born February 14, 1973) nicknamed Air McNair, is a former American football Quarterback in the National Division I (or D-I) is the highest level of intercollegiate athletics sanctioned by the National Collegiate Athletic Association in the United States Alcorn State University, located near Lorman Mississippi, United States, is a public Land grant university. The 1994 NCAA Division I-A football season saw yet another controversial finish as both Nebraska and Penn State finished undefeated and yet Gordie Lockbaum, from Division I-AA Holy Cross, finished third in the voting in 1987. Gordon "Gordie" C Lockbaum, born November 16, 1965 in Media Pennsylvania, was a star running back and cornerback in NCAA Division I-AA The College of the Holy Cross is a prestigious exclusively undergraduate Roman Catholic liberal arts college located in Worcester Massachusetts, The 1987 NCAA Division I-A football season ended with Miami winning its second National Championship during the 80's in Archie Griffin of Ohio State is the only player to receive the award twice, winning it as a junior in 1974 and a senior in 1975. Archie Mason Griffin (born August 21, 1954) is a former American football Running back and college football's only two-time Heisman trophy The Ohio State University ( OSU) is a Coeducational public Research university in the state of Ohio. The word student is etymologically derived through Middle English from the Latin second-type conjugation Verb "studēre" [3] Of all the schools where Heisman coached, the only one to produce a trophy winner is Auburn, with two—Pat Sullivan in 1971 and Bo Jackson in 1985. John William Heisman ( October 23, 1869 &ndash October 3, 1936) was a prominent American football player and College football Auburn University ( AU or Auburn) is a State university located in Auburn, Alabama, U Patrick Joseph Sullivan (born January 18, 1950) is a former American football player winner of the 1971 Heisman Trophy, and Vincent Edward "Bo" Jackson (born November 30, 1962 in Bessemer Alabama) is an American athlete and a former multi-
Although Chicago is now a Division III school and Yale and Princeton are now Division I FCS, all three schools were considered major programs at the time their players won the award. The University of Chicago is a Private university located principally in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago. Division III (or DIII) is a division of the National Collegiate Athletic Association of the United States. Princeton University is a private Coeducational research university located in Princeton, New Jersey. In addition to incredible personal statistics, team achievements play a heavy role in the voting—a typical Heisman winner represents a team that had an outstanding season and was most likely in contention for the national championship at some point in that season.
Balloting
Balloting for the Heisman is selective. The fifty states of the U.S. are split into six regions, and six regional representatives are selected to appoint voters in their states (the regions include the Far West, the Mid Atlantic, Mid West, North East, South, and South West). A US state is any one of the fifty subnational entities of the United States of America that share Sovereignty with the federal government The United States of America —commonly referred to as the Each region has 145 media votes, for a total of 870 votes. In addition, all previous Heisman winners may vote, and one final vote is counted through public balloting. The Heisman ballots contain a 3-2-1 point system, in which each ballot ranks the voter's top three players and awards them three points for a first-place vote, two points for a second-place vote, and one point for a third-place vote. The points are tabulated, and the player with the highest total of points across all ballots wins the Heisman Trophy.
Age
Further prestige is granted by experience: no freshman has ever won the award. A freshman, fresher, fish, or frosh is a first-year student in an educational institution Tim Tebow (2007) is the only sophomore to win it,[4] and only a few juniors have held the trophy; the rest have been seniors. Timothy Richard "Tim" Tebow (born August 14, 1987) is an American football Quarterback for the Florida Gators. Sophomore is a term used to describe a second effort instance or release Before Tebow became the first sophomore to win the award, several came close. Angelo Bertelli, Glenn Davis, Doc Blanchard, Doak Walker, and Herschel Walker all finished in the top three of the Heisman voting as freshmen or sophomores before eventually winning the award. Angelo Bortolo Bertelli ( June 18 1921 - June 26 1999) was an American football Quarterback. Glenn Woodward Davis ( December 26, 1924 - March 9, 2005) was an American football player famous in the 1940s This article refers to the college football player For the Vietnam Navy Corpsman, see Doc Steven Blanchard.

Position
The Heisman is frequently awarded to a running back or a quarterback; very few players have won the trophy playing at a different position. A running back ( RB) is the position of a player on an American or Canadian football team who usually lines up in the offensive backfield. Quarterback ( QB) is a position in American and Canadian football. Charles Woodson is the only primarily defensive player to win the award, doing so as a defensive back for Michigan in 1997. Charles Woodson (born on October 7, 1976 in Fremont Ohio) is an American football Cornerback for the Green Bay Packers In many team Sports defense or defence (see spelling differences) is the action of preventing an opponent from scoring In American football and Canadian football, defensive backs are the players on the defensive team who take positions somewhat back from the line of scrimmage they The University of Michigan Ann Arbor ( U of M, U-M, UM or simply Michigan) is a top-ranked Coeducational public research No interior lineman on either side of the ball has ever won the award, although offensive guard Tom Brown of Minnesota and offensive tackle John Hicks of Ohio State placed second in 1960 and 1973 respectively, and defensive end Hugh Green of Pittsburgh finished second in 1980.

Regional bias controversy
A number of critics have expressed concern about the "unwritten rules" regarding player position and age, as noted above. But over the years, there has been substantial criticism that the Heisman balloting process has ignored West Coast players. From 1982 (Marcus Allen) to 2002 (Carson Palmer), not a single Pacific-10 Conference or other West Coast player won the Heisman Trophy. Marcus LeMarr Allen (born March 26 1960 in San Diego California) is a former American football player, and until recently affiliated with CBS as a game Carson Palmer (born December 27, 1979 in) is an American football Quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football The Pacific-10 Conference ( Pac-10) is a college athletic conference which operates in the western United States. Of course, three Southern California (USC) players have won the trophy in the early years of the 21st century and two won it subsequent to Palmer, but no non-USC player from the West Coast has won since Stanford's Jim Plunkett in 1970. The University of Southern California (commonly referred to as USC, SC, Southern California, and incorrectly Leland Stanford Junior University, commonly known as Stanford University or simply Stanford, is a private Research university located in James W "Jim" Plunkett (born December 5, 1947 in San Jose California) is a former American football Quarterback who played
The "West Coast bias" discussion usually centers on the idea that East Coast voters see few West Coast games, because of television coverage contracts, time zone differences, or cultural interest. At Heisman-projection website StiffArmTrophy. com, commentator Kari Chisholm notes that the Heisman balloting process itself is inherently biased:[5]
For Heisman voting purposes, the nation is divided into six regions—each of which get 145 votes. Put another way, each region gets exactly 16. 66 percent of the votes. (Every living Heisman winner also gets a vote, but that's a good thing we'll set aside for this discussion. ) Unfortunately for the Heisman folks, the regions don't break down nicely into 1/6 of the population each. Instead, three regions (Far West, Midwest, and Mid-Atlantic) have more population than that—and three have less (Northeast, South, and Southwest). In fact, the Far West has the greatest population at 21. 1% of the country and the Northeast has the least—11. 9%.
There has also been controversy about a perceived bias against players who play in the Southeastern Conference by critics who note the relatively small number of winners from that region. The Southeastern Conference (SEC is a College Athletic conference headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, which operates in the southeastern

The award was first presented in 1935 by the Downtown Athletic Club (DAC) in Manhattan, New York, a privately owned recreation facility near the site of the former World Trade Center.

In 1966, former Florida player Steve Spurrier relinquished his Heisman to university president Dr. The Florida Gators are the athletic teams that collectively represent the University of Florida in Gainesville Florida. Stephen Orr Spurrier (born April 20, 1945 in Miami Beach Florida) is a former American football player and currently the head coach J.

J Wayne Reitz ( December 31, 1908 &ndash December 24, 1993) was the President of the University of Florida from 1955 until 1967 [2] The gesture caused Florida's student government raised funds to purchase a replacement for Spurrier. [2] From that point on, the Downtown Athletic Club has issued two trophies to winners, one to the individual and one to the school. [2]
Several Heisman trophies have been sold over the years. O. J. Simpson's 1968 trophy was sold in February 1999 for $230,000 as part of the settlement of the civil trial in the O. J.
