Who should win the Heisman Trophy: a running back having a historic season, or a player wreaking havoc as a two-way player? That question is the one potentially facing Heisman Trophy voters this college football season, as Boise State Broncos running back Ashton Jeanty is kicking up dust like nobody's business, while Colorado wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter is shining on both sides of the ball.
In Hunter's eyes, though, he's the clear winner. "Y'all see Ashton Jeanty, but it's not like we haven't seen a running back that's good.
We haven't seen a player that plays both ways," Hunter said on "Outta Pocket with RGIII." "I'ma keep saying that. He has 95 carries for 1,000 yards.
If I had 95 catches, how many yards do you think I'd have? If I had 95 targets on defense, what do you think I'd have? … he got double the touches I got on the offensive side of the ball, and I still have defensive stats that's still crazy, and we're only in Week 6.
