Ingram wins the highest award in college football.

Running back #22 Mark Ingram from the University of Alabama is the 2009 Heisman Trophy winner!!!!

During the past Saturdays Mark would take it to the house. Today, he brings the first Heisman trophy to the Crimson Tide home. Mark, indeed your character and high-integrity shows you are the MAN in the HeisMAN award. Roll Tide Roll!!!

Congratulations! I was hoping he'd win. I was watching the ceremony (Aside: Flutie looked good, I'm a BC grad '89) and thought the entire finalist group was very classy. Nobody mentioned Ingram's dad is in prison... a heartfelt speech by the young man.

I'm a Flutie fan. Yes, the entire group demonstrates class.

Congrats to Ingram. Well-deserved.

A thought (rarely have them), about Alabama's football history.

Always mentioned are Namath and Stabler. Namath and Stabler.

Bart Starr should be the FIRST name on that list. An incredibly classy human, determined competitor,

my boyhood hero,.....and with the Packers, he won some important football games too.

So there!

Nobody mentioned Ingram's dad is in prison...

He was interviewed on Sportscenter later from the theater couch (the one where the lights kept going out during the show) and the interviewer, while asking about his family, stated that his dad was "locked up for bank robbery."

At the end of the awards show I was confused by the announcer telling Tebow to come on up here. Of course, he had to join the prior winners in welcoming Ingram to the fraternity. Yeah, I'm keeping up! <_<

Any one of those kids could have won based on their years, but I kinda was hoping for Gerhard from Stanford. And yes, they were all class acts.

Most people who remember Starr are dead old man. Nobody cares about ancient history today.

Bama has produced their share of linemen too.

P.S. please stop setting me up... as in, "A thought (rarely have them)..."
