I'd say he probably had a shot of beating out Berwanger for the Heisman in 1935, huh? Unfortunetly for him, in 1935 the Heisman was only open to those east of the Mississippi River. Thanks for sharing. These old football photos are great and pretty reasonable.
INCREDIBLE! Thank you for finding that! I think Lam most definitley had a case for the 1935 Heisman as did his backfield mate Byron White later in 1937. It's awesome that this photo made it to the papers!
