Heisman Busts

With the awarding of the Heisman Trophy coming up, a popular feature of sports punditry is the retrospective on past Heisman winners who turned out to be busts in the NFL. Ron Dayne, naturally, appears on that list, but it is a little known fact (why I don't know) that I, Donny Baseball, predicted Ron Dayne would be a bust the very moment that he was drafted. My reasoning? Very simple...
1) Ron Dayne is a running back
2) Ron Dayne was drafted by the New York Giants
3) Ron Dayne attended a Big 10 school

Why, you ask, are these facts determinative? Well, here is a list of other Big 10 running backs that the NY Giants picked #1:
- Butch Woolfolk
- Jerrod Bunch
- Tyrone Wheatley

Sorry for the unpleasant flashback Jint fans.
