ESPN following the Heisman Trophy presentation last night debuted "The U Part 2," its latest "30 for 30" installment, and the documentary drew positive reviews on Twitter. The South Florida Sun-Sentinel’s Omar Kelly wrote, "The U Part Two was an amazing documentary. Made me nostalgic. Congrats to @BillyCorben. Balanced. Covered it all. Fair and accurate." Bleacher Report’s Mike Freeman: "The U sequel was better than the first one." Georgia Tech Assistant AD/Communications Chris Yandle: "#TheUPart2 was good.
