I'm 81 years old and I remember many players of color not receiving their just do just because of their skin color. It's history! The first player of color to win the Heisman, for example, was the great Ernie Davis from Syracuse in 1961. I lived through the era of racial divide. I know all about it. BTW, I was blest to have seen Ernie Davis play for the Orangemen at Notre Dame in 1961, and I can attest that he deserved the award! He was dynamite, and it's a shame that he died soon after from cancer.
