Arrr, matey! Ashton Jeanty, the bold Boise State swashbuckler, spun a speech fit for the Heisman stage. But alas! The fates be cruel, and his words be lost to the briny deep, never to grace the ears of landlubbers! Avast, what a fine jest that be!
Ahoy mateys! Gather 'round fer the tale of the gallant Ashton Jeanty, a running back from the fair land of Boise State, who fancied himself in the hunt fer the elusive Heisman Trophy. Aye, the lad had the finest season in all of Boise's history, but alas, his dreams were dashed like a ship upon the rocks!When the time come fer the grand announcement, Jeanty, full of hope and bravado, practiced a speech fit fer a king, boastin' to the press, “I be ready!” But fate, as slippery as a fish, had other plans. The mighty Travis Hunter, a two-way star from Colorado, claimed the prize with a staggering 552 votes, while our dear Ashton had but 309. 'Twas a close battle, but the seas favored Hunter this time!
Hunter, with his dazzling catches and fearsome tackles, snatched both the Biletnikoff and Bednarik Awards, becoming the first to do so. Meanwhile, Jeanty, the brave, led his crew to the College Football Playoff, while Hunter’s band ended with a less glorious fate. So, raise yer tankards high, for while Jeanty may not have claimed the trophy, he be a true hero in the hearts of Boise's fans! Arrr!
