    The new rules allow what he was “convicted” of, and I guarantee most of the big time players he was competing with for the Heisman were doing the same stuff as him back then. Yes, the rest of the competitors in the game at the time weren’t allowed to do it, so it isn’t as easy as saying “it’s allowed now.” But I still think he deserved it.

      I agree that he deserved it. The rules he broke also wouldn’t give him an advantage on the field, so I think he earned it fair and square.
