Andre Hall and The Heisman Hope
It's been a long time since the word Heisman and Bull was mentioned in the same conversation. In 2017, Quinton Flowers has been referred to as a candidate for the honor, even if just a "dark horse". The first ever chatter around a USF Bulls player breaking into that club was with RB Andre Hall. Hall was an offensive MVP and 9th in the nation in yards per game as a junior. He was hyped as a potential All-American and yes an outside shot at the H trophy. USF never took that leap, but many South Florida fans did. Below is a limited edition, unofficial and unlicensed, bumper sticker that was distributed to help hype Andre Hall in his senior year:
ESPN felt a little of the Hall excitement as the Bulls made a historic move to the Big East:
Hall did not get Heisman consideration, but he went down in history as one of 10 Essential Bulls as compiled by Jim Louk in 2014. What's more, I had a chance to select him in my fantasy football league when he was with the Denver Broncos!
