Sproles Shrugs Off Heisman Talk At Kansas State
Kansas State running back Darren Sproles, a first team All American last year, says he wants to play football and avoid Heisman attention. He compiled 1,986 rushing yards and 16 rushing TDs, plus 287 receiving yards and two receiving TDs, with 482 kickoff return yards. Despite strong numbers and a Big 12 title, he finished fifth in Heisman voting and did not reach New York as a finalist.
