I think the fact that Richardson is a physical freak is a big reason he received a lot of the hype while not produces as much as say Ball. He had some nasty plays and abused some guys.
The Heisman has a long way to go to becoming a legitimate award again but this was a huge first step. I am more than pleased to see someone who actually deserves the award get it, rather than someone who was over hyped like Tebow or Troy Smith.
I do think that Ball deserved second though. But he wasn't going to get there because of the hype train surrounding Richardson and the previous hype that had surrounded Luck for the 1st half of the season.
