Will NIU campaign for Wolfe in 2006 as they did for Michael Turner in 2003?

In Turner's senior year college football was loaded with stars and Miami's Big Ben finished in the top ten. Turner really did not have any eye catching games.

With OSU(nationally televised), Iowa(my guess nationally televised) Wolfe has a chance to really make people take notice right away, much like he did this year.

I'm a little torn on the Heisman topic. Wolfe certainly deserves a shot at the Heisman, but it would be a distraction, and he wouldn't have a chance if he's going against Reggie Bush, since Bush has already been crowned the best RB. And the Heisman's a joke anyway, since people that play for top teams and get on TV alot will win it every time. If Wolfe does well against top teams, the B©Sers will still find an excuse for it - they didn't play well, looking past NIU, etc.

Has Reggie B declared if he is going to the draft yet?

I haven't heard. I suppose he won't say until after the bowl game?

you boys having trouble with your quoting? :)

Reggie Bush is a junior. I haven't heard him declare for the draft yet, but he'd be nuts not to - he's the likely 1st overall pick.

There should be some sort of Heisman campaign for Wolfe. It doesn't have to be tons of cash or a full building poster on Michigan Avenue or Times Square, but for a player that productive and good you should show that you're willing to put support them for awards. If the player has the right mindset (as did Turner, and as Wolfe definitely seems to), it'll benefit the team as much as the player and it shows recruits that we're willing to advertise for you if you're special.

Yep. ;-)

Bush said in an interview that there is not much left for him at this level and he looks forward to the next challenge (being trying to win with the Texans...not something I would look forward to) His parents were interviewed at the USC-UCLA game and said they were encouraging him and he was leaning to the NFL. As long as he doesn't Willis McGahee is the Rose Bowl you can say "With the first pick in the 2006 NFL Draft the Houston Texans select.... Reggie Bush... Runningback USC (he then puts down his cellphone he was talking on like he didn't expect to be picked right away, hugs for momma, a finger to the big JC in the sky and he will wear a big Texans jersey signafying his descent into the abyss) Just the facts.

Oh yeah because I can......
