When the soft-spoken Statesman sports writer picked Trojan Reggie Bush over Longhorn Vince Young to top his 2005 Heisman ballot, there was burnt-orange outrage. Yet the two-decade veteran commentator on UT sports kept his own counsel, even when it would be easier to play to the home crowd. Bohls remains the voice of reason in a stadium of fanatics.
