The Heisman is a glorious award to any College Football player and every little boy that ever plays football knows the stance that goes along with the name of the award…Heisman. Although many players have gone on to greatness by winning the Heisman only one player since the beginning of Collegiate Football has won the award more than once for themselves. That player is Archie Griffin from the Ohio State Buckeyes. This fact could become obsolete because there could be another player that may be doubling up with the Heisman Trophy and that young man is Tim Tebow of the Florida Gators. Tim Tebow is one of those all around quarterbacks, which means that he has the arm strength of a Brett Favre, the pin point accuracy of Joe Montana, and the running ability of Michael Vick. He is such an uncontrollable force that defenses set up around what Tim Tebow will do. In 2007 he won the Heisman trophy mostly because of the numbers that he put up including throwing for 3286 yards with 32 touchdowns and 66.9 percent completion percentage and rushing for 895 yards and 23 touchdowns. That is a spectacular season and just shows his diversity between the rushing and passing game. Although this year he has yet to run for a touchdown and has only threw three touchdowns, which compared to last year is far in the shadows from his optimal performance in my opinion. I believe that in that his passing and rushing touchdowns will increase greatly by the end of the season. This is because they finally have Percy Harvin back to 100 percent. The Associated Press stated that Florida receiver Percy Harvin hasn't felt this good since 10th grade. This is bad news because against Tennessee last year when he was not even 50 percent he had nine rushes for 107 yards and a touchdown. This just shows that Tim Tebow now has the chance to double up twice with the impervious Heisman Trophy.
