Louisville recruiting Twitter casts Heisman fan vote ... but not for Lamar Jackson image

Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson is the heavy favorite to win the Heisman Trophy on Dec. 10, but someone on the Cardinals staff apparently doesn't think he deserves to win.

Fans can vote for their Heisman favorite on Nissan's Heisman House website, where the winner of the fan vote will receive one first-place vote. Naturally, Louisville staffers would want to make sure Jackson gets another first-place vote come Saturday, so it makes sense that they'd cast a fan ballot.

But whoever runs the Louisville recruiting Twitter account didn't vote for Jackson and (probably) accidentally made it public. (The tweet has since been deleted).

Cardinals fans should hope that Jackson doesn't lose by one first-place vote.
