<Tr> <Th> Website </Th> <Td> http://www.heisman.com/ </Td> </Tr> <P> The Heisman Trophy, one of the highest individual awards in American college football, has been awarded 81 times since its creation in 1935, including 79 unique winners and one two - time winner . The trophy is given annually to the most outstanding college football player in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS), and is awarded by the Heisman Trust, successors of the awards from the Downtown Athletic Club at an annual ceremony at the PlayStation Theater in Times Square, Manhattan . </P> <P> In 1935, the award, then known as the DAC Trophy, was created by New York City's Downtown Athletic Club to recognize the best college football player "east of the Mississippi River". In that inaugural year, the award went to Jay Berwanger from the University of Chicago . Berwanger was later drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League but declined to sign for them . He never played professional football for any team, instead choosing to pursue a career in business . In 1936, the club's athletic director, football pioneer John Heisman, died and the trophy was renamed in his honor . Larry Kelley, the second winner of the award, was the first to win it as the "Heisman Trophy". In addition to the name change, the award also became a nationwide achievement . With the new name, players west of the Mississippi became eligible; the first player from the western United States was selected in 1938 . Only one player, Ohio State's Archie Griffin, has won the award twice . </P> <P> On June 10, 2010, following several years of investigation, the NCAA announced that USC running back Reggie Bush, the 2005 Heisman trophy winner, received gifts from agents while still in college . The university received major sanctions, and there were reports that the Heisman Trophy Trust would strip his award . In September of that year, Bush voluntarily forfeited his title as the 2005 winner . The Heisman Trust decided to leave the award vacated with no new winner to be announced . </P>
