If he were to win the trophy, Ward would be the first UM Heisman winner since quarterback Gino Toretta won the award in 1992.

In the history of the Miami Hurricanes football program there have been two Heisman trophy winners: Vinny Testeverde and Gino Torretta. The ‘Canes are now projected to add another, quarterback Cam Ward.

Miami quarterback Cam Ward spent some time in offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson's office earlier this week, going over the Hurricanes' passing game and how things have worked through three games. They talked about plenty.

Cam Ward’s competitive nature doesn’t stop when he’s on the sideline. His resolve to make the Miami Hurricanes the best team they can be is paramount even when he’s not on the field.

Last season was a great indicator for the program with the freshman now sophomore quarterback arguably playing better than Ward in Saturday's victory against Ball State.

Cam Ward continued his excellent start to the year, throwing five touchdown passes as the No. 10 Hurricanes rolled to a win over Ball State.
