The Young family is not interested in the Heisman.
Vince Young's mother told FOX 26 in Houston she believes her son deserved the 2005 Heisman Trophy, but has no interest in it being awarded now if it becomes available.
"We're not interested in having no honor and no glory out of somebody else they are trying to tear down, no," Felicia Young said.

"Their secondary is really, really good," he said. "The safeties are tough and they can hit you. The corners can cover. We were really impressed with their secondary last year."

The kids aren't going to take this Aggie's spot.
The starting offensive left guard worked extra hard to regain a starting role after being demoted to the second team. Now, eight straight starts later, he doesn't plan on letting one of the young, talented freshmen take his spot.
"It's good to have guys pushing you and making you get better, and they're getting better at the same time. You definitely notice them -- that's the future of A&M up front. Things are just going to continue to get better and in turn make us better."
