Is the word H-eisman part of the URL?

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - JJJ - 11-22-2016

unfortunately, yes. between the /nissan/ and the/2016/ is the H-award name. Or you need to google espn promo hesiman (spelled correctly) and bookmark it. works once a day. let's go CARDboard!

The link has been fixed. You can also use the goo.gl link.

Neither link works.

You can't fix a link that has a censored word in it -- unless you'd like me to apply the patch for that. Remember you told me not to because you were worried it would somehow interfere with other mods.

I don't know why the goo.gl link doesn't work.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - yvonne - 11-22-2016

You can add the mod, if it works.

I made the goo.gl link from a correct link.  I'll try it again.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - admin - 11-22-2016

links are fixed and tested.

Go ahead and add the fix. Other mods are not working right now.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - Papa John - 11-22-2016

I went to the website to vote and saw 8 choices, but none of them were CMac:

Leonard Fournette, LSU RB SO
Nick Chubb, Georgia RB JR
J.T. Barrett, Ohio State QB JR
Deshaun Watson, Clemson QB JR
Royce Freeman, Oregon RB JR
Dalvin Cook, FSU RB JR
Jalen Hurd, Tennessee RB SO
Myles Garrett, Texas A&M DL JR

I selected "Nominate a Candidate" and went through a series of drop-down lists (choose conference, choose team, choose athlete). Unfortunately, the Submit Vote button didn't work on Google Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer. So I tried on my phone and it still didn't work. Given that CMac has 2% of the vote, other voters are clearly having more success than I.

If you scroll down further Mac's name is listed, at least on my ipad.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - Papa John - 11-22-2016

Oh, there's a scroll bar! Thanks TreesAndBirds, it worked.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - indiancardinal - 11-22-2016

I just voted and it seems that CMAC has fallen out of the top 10

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - JJJ - 11-22-2016

It let me vote from both my laptop and my phone once a day. JFYI.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - fullmetal - 11-22-2016

I love how D'Onta Foreman is leading all recipients with 22% of the vote.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - Mick - 11-22-2016

I voted for CMac.  It was easy.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - winflop - 11-23-2016

I am boycotting all things associated with the award given to the best player east of New Mexico & Colorado.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - JJJ - 11-25-2016

Bump. Can we stick this thread on the top? I know I'll forget otherwise.

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - Trevmiesterj - 11-25-2016

Vote tallied, but CMac doesn't appear high up on the leaderboard list ATM  :(

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - JJJ - 11-26-2016

USC's Adoree Jackson tries to strike the pose at least 4 times following his kickoff return TD, but does it wrong every time. He may be a great athlete and a great person, but I dunno, I can't see McCaffrey doing the same (or Shaw approving if he did).

Re: CMac for the : vote early and often! - JJJ - 11-27-2016

From gostanford.com's recap (link also posted elsewhere):

Quote:Here's a glimpse of what he's accomplished this season:


    His 2,327 all-purpose yards leads the FBS and is the second-highest total in Stanford history, behind his own 3,864, from last year. He is averaging 211.5 per game.
    McCaffrey's 1,603 rushing yards are the fourth-most in school history.
    In the past five games, McCaffrey has rushed for 991 yards and rushed for 10 touchdowns.
    This is McCaffrey's fifth consecutive game with 100 yards rushing, making him the only player in Stanford history to have two such streaks.
    McCaffrey has two consecutive 200-yard rushing performances, and five in his career.
    With 6,987 all-purpose yards, he needs only 134 more to break Darrin Nelson's Stanford career record.
    With 3,922 career rushing yards, McCaffrey is No. 3 at Stanford all-time and still has a season of eligibility remaining.


I thought the last two bullet points were particularly impressive, although they all were.

A couple of other things, emphasizing that his drop off from his all time record setting year last year was surprisingly small and mostly due to injury and teams not kicking off to him; and this despite a generally much poorer offense that provided fewer opportunities.

- McCaffrey is averaging 145.7 yds/game rushing. Last year he averaged 144.2.
- No one else in the Pac 12 is averaging even 100 yds/game rushing.
- McCaffrey is averaging 6.34 yds/carry. Last year he averaged 5.99 yds/carry. This improvement despite the fact that McCaffrey took over the short yardage role for most of the season.
- He's catching a few more passes than last year (3.4 vs 3.2) but for fewer yards/gm (28 vs 46).
- He leads the nation in all purpose yards for the second year in a row. Last year he averaged 276.0 yds/game. This year 211.5 yds/game.
- Most of the lost all purpose yards production from last year is in kickoff returns, primarily because teams won't kick to him. Last year he had 37 returns for 1070 yards; this year 14 returns for 318 yds.
- McCaffrey has 42.6% of Stanford's yards from scrimmage, but that includes entirely missing one game and being decidedly injured for two others. Last year he had 43.7% of Stanford's yards from scrimmage.
