Welcome to Adam Ballard for Heisman
Welcome to Adam Ballard 4 Heisman.
If you are reading this blog, then chances are Adam Ballard needs no introduction. For those of you who happened to stumble across this blog, welcome to the Heisman campaign for the best fullback in college football.
Adam Ballard is not a star quarterback from the best team in the nation. He is not a flashy wide receiver who riverdances after touchdowns. He is simply a bruising fullback toiling in relative anonymity for the United States Naval Academy. Yes, you read that right, we are supporting a fullback from Navy in the race for the Heisman. Our interest in Midshipman Ballard was first piqued December 3, 2005 when the Mids took on rival Army in the annual Army Navy game. Ballard carried the ball 18 times for 192 yards and 2 touchdowns routing Army and capturing the Command in Chief Trophey. Ballard followed his outstanding performance against Army with a December 22, 2005 showdown with the Colorado State Rams in the Poinsettia Bowl. Through the course of this game, Adam Ballard ran the ball 15 times for 129 yards in a 51-30 of the Rams. However, Adam Ballard did not score a touchdown in this game. Much like Walter "Sweetness" Payton who experienced something very similar in Super Bowl XX when Super Genius Mike Ditka decided to reward the "Fridge" with a touchdown carry, Ballard was more interested in the fact that they won the game rather in his own personal accolades. Adam Ballard is a phenomenal talent on the field but off the field he shows class and dignity. Yes, it is easy to support the front runners like Adrian Peterson, Brady Quinn and Steve Breaston in their chase to win the Heisman trophy.
The Heisman trophy is award to the most outstanding player in college football and yes you can make a case for the best player on every team in the nation and it is much easier to make a case for someone who plays in a top 25 program, but the easiest way isn't always the best way. That is why we support Adam Ballard for Heisman and we hope that you will too. This campaign was initially started by 3 friends as a group on facebook "Adam Ballard for Heisman" but now we have decided to reach out to Heisman voters all over the country and make this a national campaign. We hope you will join us and our quest to not only help Adam Ballard win the Heisman trophy, but to restore a once distinguished football powerhouse back to the ranks of the elite teams.
