Marshall’s Moss has taken long
road to Heisman trophy candidate
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) — When
Randy Moss showed up at Florida State,
coach Bobby Bowden was almost giddy over
his new wide receiver.
“He can run, he can jump, but what he
does best is run like a scalded dog,’’ Bowden
said before Moss ran afoul of the law and was
kicked off the team.
A year and another school later, Moss has
not stop running. And no one can catch him.
“Nobody in America can cover him,” Ball
State coach Bill Lynch said after Moss caught
five touchdown passes in Marshall’s 42-16
victory against the Cardinals.
The only sophomore among this year’s
Heisman Trophy candidates, Moss set the
Division I-A single-season mark with 25
receiving touchdowns — five covering 70
yards or more — and has caught 90 passes for
1,647 yards to set a Mid-American
Conference record.
In two seasons, he has scored 53 TDs for
Marshall.
“He’s doing this with people putting triple
coverage on him,” Marshall coach Bob
Pruett said. “They doubled and triple-
teamed Randy, but he always seems to find a
way to make big plays.”
At 6-foot-5, Moss is taller than most
defensive backs and he is faster, with 4.25
speed in the 40-yard-dash. He has also got an
impressive 39-inch vertical leap and huge
hands with tentaclelike fingers that rarely
drop passes.
The 1997 Randy Moss highlight film begins
with a 90-yard touchdown against Army.
Cradling a screen pass behind the line of
scrimmage on his own 5, Moss took off
across the field, faking two linemen off their
feet, stiff-arming another defender, hurdling
yet another and, without losing a step, accel
erating down the left sideline while the rest
of the field seemed to be in slow motion.
Already named the MAC player of the year
and a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award given
to the nation’s best receiver, Moss is setting
new standards for receivers, having scored at
least one touchdown in each of his 27 col
lege games.
But Moss says he would rather watch
the Heisman Trophy ceremony Dec. 13 on
his living room television than in person.
He is one of four players invited to New
York for the ceremony.
“I think just for the fact that I’m Jlb»
coming out of a small school here in ill
Huntington, it would be very difficult
for me to win it,” Moss said.
“Hopefully it’s not that big of a factor, but
deep down inside I think it is.”
Moss’ college career was almost over
before it began.
One of West Virginia’s most celebrated
high school athletes, Moss was headed to
Notre Dame but the Irish revoked the schol
arship after he was charged with attacking
another student at DuPont High School.
Moss pleaded guilty to battery and was
sentenced to 30 days in jail. He was allowed
to defer most of the sentence until after his
freshman year in college.
Florida State was quick to roll out the wel
come mat, but a year later rolled it back up
when Moss violated his probation by smok
ing marijuana. A one-year jail sentence was
reduced a month later to time served after he
completed algebra and speech communica
tions classes in a work-study program.
Although Moss never played at Florida
State, Bowden was well aware of his talent.
“He’s just got so many tools, limitless tools,”
the coach said after watching Moss practice.
After his release from jail, Moss walked on
at Marshall and scored 28 touchdowns,
leading the Thundering Herd to the
Division I-AA championship and a 15-0
record. This season, Marshall (10-2)
returned to Division I-A after a 28-year
absence and faces Mississippi in the jj
Motor City Bowl on Dec. 26.
But can a wide receiver in the
MAC win the Heisman? For
that matter, can a wide
receiver from any school
win it? The last receiver to
win it was Michigan’s
Desmond Floward
in 1991.
“If the Heisman Trophy is for the best col
lege player who does the most for his team, I
think Randy deserves a shot,” said Marshall
quarterback Chad Pennington. “When the
offense needs a big play, he’s going to make
one almost every time.”
Nonetheless, the award is expected to go
to players at higher-profile programs such as
Tennessee’s Peyton Manning, Michigan’s
Charles Woodson, or Ryan Leaf at
Washington State.
But one-by-one, Moss has made believers
out of each of his opponents.
“I don’t know about the Heisman Trophy
because I’m not into that. But anyone who
can run that fast is special,” said West
Virginia coach Don Nehlen, whose team
defeated Marshall 42-31 despite Moss’ two
touchdowns.
Moss has tried to deflect some of the atten
tion toward his teammates. But he may also be
trying to avoid the kind of negative publicity that
came with his arrests and frankness.
He was sharply criticized in West Virginia
after he told Sports Illustrated
and the Los Angeles Times that
he did not like the state and
wanted to leave as quickly as
possible.
Moss also drew heavy criti
cism when he said he did not
know much about the 1970
plane crash that wiped out
Marshall’s team in 1970, and
while calling it a tragedy, he said
it “wasn’t nothing big.”
Pruett says he and Moss have
not discussed the Heisman or Moss’
future. But he thinks Moss will go to
the NFL rather than return for his junior
season.
Moss says he has set no timetable and
has enrolled for spring semester class
es. The Heisman, Moss says with a
shrug, would be nice, but losing
will not break his heart.
In fact, he is weary of
answering questions about it.
“This Heisman thing is
not so big to me. If the tro
phy comes, great. I mean,
if it wouldn’t hurt any
body’s feelings, I’d watch
it on TV. I never really did
set any individual goals
for myself.”
