How A College Kid's Photograph Helped Launch Denard Robinson's Heisman Candidacy



Cool story:
So they filed around 9 p.m., packed up their equipment, and walked to the car for their return drive to Ann Arbor. Before they reached the parking lot, Collins's phone rang. It was one of the Daily's football writers, demanding to speak to Wolson.

"He was, like, ‘Dude, you've got to put this photo up on the AP,'" Wolson said. "And I said, ‘Why? It's a cool photo, but it's not anything fantastic.' And he said, ‘No, you don't understand. It looks exactly like the fucking Heisman pose!'"

1. Yeah, it does look like the Heisman pose...
...too bad that as Michigan continues a season that is going ok, to eventually God-awful, he'll drop as a likely candidate.

2. It's a great shot
But way too early for Heisman talk; I don't see Robinson winning this year. Don't share JoeyBee's doom and gloom, though, I find Michigan vastly improved this year.
