One of the more eye-catching handouts at the Atlantic Coast Conference football media kickoff last month was the stack of life-size posters of running back C.J. Spiller that Clemson distributed to promote his Heisman Trophy candidacy. The 5-foot, 11-inch image of Spiller in an all-orange Tigers uniform certainly made an impression on Georgia Tech junior Jonathan Dwyer.
"I think that's pretty cool," Dwyer said. "I'll have to ask Dean Buchan (Tech's sports information director) where my poster is."
Though Dwyer was laughing when he said it, there is nothing funny about his credentials for national recognition. He was the 2008 ACC player of the year, not Spiller. And Dwyer is the player most national scouting reports list as the league's top professional prospect.
