ESPN reporter Holly Rowe was just out of surgery one day in February to remove a malignant tumor from her chest. She would tweet that surgery went well, but in reality, it was one of the lowest points of my life.She lay on the ground, unsure how she could get past the pain and the nausea. I felt mutilated, Rowe said. I felt broken.Then she saw a tweet from Pittsburgh football coach Pat Narduzzi. It was a short, 10-second video of running back James Conner, who had been diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma last December, running drills with a mask on after one of his chemotherapy treatments.I was shocked, Rowe said. I watched it over and over again. How is this kid doing this?That day, Rowe got up from the floor and walked three miles on the treadmill.Because of James Conner, Rowe said. Because he showed me what strength looks like.Rowe was brought to tears standing alongside fellow cancer survivor Shelley Smith when they introduced Conner, winner of the 2016 Disney Sports Spirit Award on Thursday at The Home Depot College Football Awards.The award, which recognizes college footballs most inspirational figure, and the moment -- from the 680-person standing ovation to the chants of his name -- brought Conner himself to tears when talking to ESPNs Tom Rinaldi. Conner dedicated his entire season -- the 1,060 rushing yards and 20 total touchdowns -- to everyone else who was fighting their own battle.With that cancer, it dont care if youre black or white, Conner said. It comes, and it comes hard. ... Theres people fighting and they dont get this, they dont receive any awards if they win and when they win, and so this is for all of us.Conner, the 2014 ACC Player of the Year, revealed his diagnosis last December. He promised to not fear cancer, not even through the 12 chemotherapy sessions.During his speech, he talked about the other people who impacted him. Like 5-year-old Andrew ONeill, whose wish was to meet him. And Smith, who beat breast cancer last year to return to broadcasting for ESPN. And Rowe.We have a bond that cant be broken, Conner said about Smith and Rowe. Them, we best friends now. To everybody going through this, they got a friend in me. T.J.

There are some early surprises in the race for the Hart Trophy, but two of the contenders are the leagues biggest stars over the past decade.
