For my second edition of Wallpaper Wednesday I give you: Hello Heisman. Celebrating Michigan's three Heisman Trophy winners: Tom Harmon, Desmond Howard, and Charles Woodson.In 1940 Tom Harmon became the first Wolverine to win the trophy. He led the nation in scoring and in his final college football game he absolutely dominated: going 11 for 12 for 151 yards and 2 TDs passing the ball, rushing for 139 yards and 2 more TDs. He also kicked four extra points and intercepted three passes as the Wolverines trounced Ohio State in Columbus 40-0. Legend has it that many of the 73,000 'shoe fans gave him a standing ovation at the end of the game. Oh, how times have changed !!
In 1991 Desmond Howard dazzled the college football nation. He scored at total of 23 TDs, including a memorable punt return against the Buckeyes ending with a iconic pose in the endzone.
Finally, in 1997 Charles Woodson became the first primary defensive player to win the Heisman. He was simply the best player in the country and led the 1997 team to an undefeated season and a National Championship.

you sir, are aMaizing
thanks!
this was a really good idea. worthy of Yost's legacy.
the sweet thing about this wallpaper is that if you reverse the image, Howard is actually holding it in the correct hand! Of course then he'll be wearing #12 on his jersey but that's besides the point!
Poor guy plans this for weeks on end and then blows it for the cameras. My guess is that he practiced it in his dorm and it looked perfect in the mirror....
oh and Andy has offered to make a Buckeye Heisman wallpaper however it's only available in 1920x1200 format since there's twice as many players to fit on the screen.
plus he'll update it for Beanie in November
thanks Andy!
Yeah, I guess he should have burned uos' asses down the right sideline instead of the left. What'd you want him to do? Turn a 180 and then do it or just do it out towards the field away from everyone close enough to see it? Don't be pissed because he turned your favorite team into his own highlight reel.
