Talk:John Heisman

message: The version of the picture from the cited article looks much better than the one we have. Perhaps we could swap, or someone could adjust the contrast on the existing one? I bet it'd just take running Auto Contrast in Photoshop. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 15:25, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

message: At Oberlin, Heisman was a player/coach. This team photo of the 1892 team shows Heisman in uniform.Speck22 (talk) 01:39, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Factual Item?

message: Why is the trophy named after him? Of all the coaches and players in the early era of college football (Walter Camp, Pop Warner, Fielding Yost, Knute Rockne), many of whom had more of an impact on the game, why Heisman? Just asking.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rluttman (talk • contribs) 21:58, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why the Heisman Trophy? 

message: The jump shift was one of his main innovations, with his teams using it on almost every play. Somebody more in-tune with, say, Georgia Tech history, should really write up something about it here.

replies: text: *And another thing. Heisman pushed hard for the legalization of the forward pass (1906), but notice after two decent seasons at Tech in '04 and '05 - and he was already a southern legend for his work at Clemson and Auburn, the team takes a significant dive until 1915 when the unreal era of 200-point scores which makes Heisman a national one begins. Was it the pass that hindered him? Cake (talk) 08:30, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

message: Whoever added the McMath source cited page numbers just once despite using it a few times. For consistency's  sake in how the sources are arranged, I assume all of those were from the original cited page, but it should be checked if any wikipedian has the book.

message: "Heisman eventually also coached track and became the head of the Atlanta Baseball Association and the athletic director of the Atlanta Athletic Club." - I assume the Atlanta Baseball Association refers to the Atlanta Crackers, of which Heisman was president of the group of owners.
