Sam Howell will be Heisman winner one day

I think that by his Junior year, that's a possibility. And, Colt McCoy can attest to Brown's leadership.
Ehhhhhh love the kid and super excited myself but pump the brakes on the Heisman talk just yet. We’ve got to win a lot more for him to be in the mix in the years ahead.
I think Sam will break every passing record at UNC. And could even be a Heisman candidate one day. But also still has some things to work on. He occasionally will lock in on one receiver instead of making his reads, which is pretty typical for a young QB at this level. That's why you see the head scratching picks where he throws the ball right at a defender. He's not seeing the defender because he's just focused on the receiver, waiting for them to make their break.
He's also going to have to work on taking less hits when he runs the ball. His creativity is one of his strengths, and he's obviously a competitor that wants to fight for every yard, but that doesn't fly for a QB at this level. It looks like he's already been coached up on that since he's been doing a better job of getting down the past few weeks. But we need him healthy for the next three and a half years.

Yes, we would. Especially as long a Lawrence is around at Clemson and they're winning at such a high level.
It would be another shot in the arm for recruiting.
I agree on all counts.
That may be true but it's still fun to think/talk about the possibility of him being a Heisman candidate one day.
