It’s probably just coincidence that Jarrett Stidham confirmed his commitment to Auburn shortly before the Heisman Trophy was awarded to Lamar Jackson on Saturday night. After all, the former Baylor quarterback met with Gus Malzahn and Rhett Lashlee during an in-home visit the day before, and it felt like only a matter of time.
But what if next year, or in two years or even three, it’s Stidham wearing the suit and tie, sitting with Jackson and all the former Heisman winners in New York City?
