Bruce Feldman’s preseason Top 10 Heisman Trophy candidates
6 Greg Ward, Houston, QB
He’s in a great system, and Texas RB transfer Duke Catalon will give this UH attack a new dimension. Ward can give his Heisman hopes a huge jolt if the Cougars knock off OU in Week 1. The one concern I have is aside from Chance Allen, will the Cougars young receivers step up?
Watson, Fournette, McCaffrey, Cook, and Mayfield are the top 5.
Stewart Mandel released his Heisman ranking and has Ward 6th
9 Greg Ward Jr., QB, Houston
A playmaking dual-threat quarterback like Ward is exactly the type of Group of 5 player that excites Heisman voters, especially if he starts off with a huge game against Oklahoma on Saturday. Ward threw for 2,828 yards and ran for 1,108 for last season’s 13-1 team. Photo: Bob Levey/Getty Images/Bob Levey
