If Hendon Hooker….

[DOCTORLOOMIS]

played for Ohio State…Notre Dame…Michigan…he’s the clear front runner for the Heisman Trophy. He’s simply the best football player on the field yet again.

This morning on Gameday, I think it might have been Pollack, said if they gave out the Heisman today it would be Hooker's.

Orlavksy just said something similar during the broadcast.

AMEN! He’s going to show it for the whole world next weekend tho… I love this young man!!!!

He could be on a losing notre dame team and still get more publicity

Maybe it was him that I was thinking of then? I knew somebody said it lol

They mentioned what you said during game day as well.

The talking heads are starting to take notice of Hooker and this offense finally.

 

[volbound1700]

He has two showcase matchups against Alabama and Georgia coming up soon. I think most people are waiting on those games. Both will help define his campaign.

 

[volbound1700]

The fact that we are not up 27-7 right now on LSU would be a case. Our offense hasn't necessarily exploded save for 1 big TD pass. Granted, I think LSU has an alright defense.

According to the media, there's no such thing as a losing Irish team

I think Hooker got rattled on that sack. He still made that big pass to McCoy that set up the FG with :06 left

I mean, we have a lot of football games left. Hooker has a chance if he continues playing at a high level. Don't get me wrong, Hooker is a HUGE reason we are 4-0 right now and ranked in top ten.

I’m a little worried about Hooker. He’s been off since that big hit.

I am as well. But I am cautiously optimistic that Milton could perform well if needed.

 

[AdoptedVOL]

In a fare world the best player wins that trophy and a campaign not needed. Unfortunately in todays world of marketing, social media, and bias, a campaign is a factor

I hope man, but Milton hasn’t shown me he’s a gamer. Still, very happy we’re starting the second hah of with a 16 point spot and the ball.

 

[volbound1700]

In another message board, someone posted that the high winds are also causing problem with the passing game.

Looked really good on mop up duty. LSU has a good defense. Thus the “cautiously” optimistic outlook. Lol

That’s what Johnny said too.

 

[VolForLife83]

11 of 20 at the half. Too many dropped balls today.

He also missed badly (behind or late) on several open WRs in the last 2 drives.

Hooker has missed some wide open receivers----one that was a sure TD, but overall, he's played great considering it's very hot down on the field with a noon day sun. And playing on the road.

Its ALWAYS been that way….

 

[Atlvol313]

HH has done an excellent job of finding receivers over and over. His #1 target has been absent and he is still dealing out there. The level of athleticism has increased with LSU from prior weeks. It says a lot to just handle business on the road and be able to choke out a team like this. His recognition is coming.

Coming in to our game they were ranked as the #16 defense in the country.
