        <body>CJ Spiller from Clemson needs to be mentioned for Hiesman.  By far is the best all around college player.  Just look at his numbers and highlights.</body>

&lt;p&gt;CBS college football commentator &lt;strong&gt;Gary Danielson&lt;/strong&gt; stopped by to discuss the big issues in college football.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Danielson has one major issue with Heisman voting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Anybody who votes before championship Saturday ... that vote should be thrown out,&quot; Danielson said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Danielson said that he guesses Alabama running back&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Mark Ingram&lt;/strong&gt; is the front-runner, but it's still wide open.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Danielson said that Colt McCoy and Tim Tebow are still very much in contention for the Heisman.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Danielson also weighted in on our poll -- what should &lt;strong&gt;Jon Gruden&lt;/strong&gt; do next year?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I don't like the Notre Dame job if I'm Jon Gruden,&quot; Danielson said. Gary said that Gruden would be frustrated because he wouldn't be able to draw the best talent to South Bend. Danielson thinks Notre Dame needs to join a conference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Danielson thinks &lt;strong&gt;Jim Harbaugh&lt;/strong&gt; will be the hot name in college football circles next offseason, and could be a strong candidate for Notre Dame. But Danielson thinks that Harbaugh will have lots of options, including the NFL.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Danielson thinks that Notre Dame needs a somewhat gimmicky offense. Danielson likes Cincy's &lt;strong&gt;Brian Kelly&lt;/strong&gt; and Georgia Tech's &lt;strong&gt;Paul Johnson&lt;/strong&gt; because they can run unorthodox offense.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dan also pointed out to that &lt;strong&gt;Kurt Warner&lt;/strong&gt; became the first quarterback since Danielson to throw five interceptions in one game and five touchdowns in back-to-back games.&lt;/p&gt;</body>
