This is a prestigious award, and USC needs a few more award winners. And unlike the Heisman, Eric actually has a very good chance to win this trophy.

Named after Hall of Famer Ronnie Lott, the Lott Trophy is awarded to college football’s Defensive IMPACT Player of the Year. Now in its sixth year, the Lott Trophy is the first college football award to equally recognize athletic performance and the personal character attributes of the player. Sponsored by The Pacific Club IMPACT Foundation in Newport Beach, the award is given to the player who exhibits the same characteristics Lott embodied during his distinguished career: Integrity, Maturity, Performance, Academics, Community and Tenacity.
Past winners of The Lott Trophy:
2004 – David Pollack, Georgia
2005 – DeMeco Ryans, Alabama
2006 – Dante Hughes, California
2007 – Glenn Dorsey, LSU
2008 – James Laurinaitis, Ohio State

As of the time of this posting, Eric had and 87% share of the voting with the next closest vote-getter at 8%.

Just wanted to refresh this a bit since this thread has had some hits but no responses yet. Please go vote. I vote everyday for Norwood for Heisman, but we all know that with the defensive bias it's an effort in futility.

With the Lott trophy, Norwood actually deserves to win. In case you didn't know, we only have one major award winner in our school's history. This would be good for us.

Please go vote for this people. I'm amazed everyone's all about the Heisman vote but can't get behind this.

As an added incentive, there's a video on the main page of Will Ferrel as "Coach Ricky Jimmy" giving a speech at the awards ceremony that's hilarious.

Plus it is just a fan favorite poll. It doesn't have a an actual impact on the votes. The winner of the Heisman poll gets an actual vote.
