Baker Mayfield is set to win college football’s most prestigious award, the Heisman Trophy. As the most efficient passer in college football history, he will break his own record this year for passer rating and set the FBS record for yards per attempt. But his path has been defined by repeated rejection and insults, and he has chosen unnecessarily hard roads for himself.
