Heisman Trophy Home Shuts its Doors

Since 9/11 the Heisman Trophy has had problems finding a home. Last Friday its newest home had closed its doors. Read the story here.



The Downtown Athletic Club suffered severe damage in 2001 and that year's presentation occurred at the Marriott Marquee in Times Square. The next year it moved to the Yale Club where Iowa's Brad Banks finished second to USC's Carson Palmer. Having attended that year, I will not forget the experience, but it took a while for my knee to heal after the Asst AD from SC, who sat in a folding chair in front of me, slide it into me in jubilation of the announcement.
