Time to Start the Heisman Hype for Tyler Van Dyke

The Heisman hype train is rolling into Coral Gables for the first time since Brad Kaaya was slinging the pigskin in a Hurricanes uniform. The Kaaya train may have entered South Florida, but that engine never came close to generating enough steam to send him to New York. The 2016 team, Mark Richt’s first and Brad Kaaya’s last, started 4-0 and peaked at 10th in the rankings before Kaaya’s Heisman train was derailed by a mid-season 0-4 stretch. Oh what could have been for Kaaya, Miami’s career leader in passing yards, if he returned to quarterback the 2017 team.
