Marcus Mariota will kick of my college athlete player profiles. This season he his the Heisman front runner, and is very worthy. This year he has thrown 38 touchdowns compared to only 2 interceptions. Only four quarterbacks through for more yards than him (3,783) and he had the sixth best completion percentage (68.3%). He averaged over 10 yards per attempt which leads the NCAA. His 38 touchdowns are good for 2nd in the NCAA. Along with an amazing passing season Mariota was also a very solid rusher. He rushed for 669 yards along with 14 touchdowns. His 14 rushing touchdowns ranked 20th among all NCAA players. This season he threw eight less interceptions this year than Jameis Winston did last year when he won the Heisman. He also has more yards and touchdowns than 2012 Heisman winner Johnny Manziel had in his Heisman season. Marcus Mariota deserves to win the Heisman and be the #1 draft pick if he declares.
