Re: Johnny Manziel investigated by NCAA

Just saw this on twitter. Seem to have a decent amount of suspicion raised from that article. The implosion may be beginning.

Re: Johnny Manziel investigated by NCAA

My question is why would he do this? Isn't his family well off and he's going to the NFL next year.

Re: Johnny Manziel investigated by NCAA

I hope not, I want us to beat A&M with Manziel playing. I want to hear no more fans from the state of Texas saying if (insert player) was in the game.

I love it…. This entire Johnny Manziel saga is what happens when you allow one kid to become bigger than your program.

Johnny sure has become quite the distraction for aTm this off season. I don't think this ends good for him nor the aggies.

Re: Johnny Manziel investigated by NCAA

The more that I hear about this guy, the more I dislike. I live in Austin Texas and have heard quite a bit about this kid when he was in high school. This is a guy that flipped the bird to the opposing teams fans and sidelines after scoring a TD and got away with it. So I think no one has ever told this kid NO!
He was also supposed to be suspended by aTm last year but the coach let him off right before fall practice last year. He just seems like a kid that thinks that he is above anyone's rules. Got to be a huge distraction to the team.

Re: Johnny Manziel investigated by NCAA

Good grief, man....Like I wished no ill will toward Tebow, I wish no ill will toward Manziel. I want to see all these kids do well; just not against us. This is bad for football. We're starting out at #1, but our schedule isn't exactly the toughest. For several reasons, we need TAMU at their best when we beat them in College Station. And so do the ticket brokers. I just saw one like this

Unfortunately the NZAA is about as tough as vintage 1986 Muammar Qadafi:

"I dare ya to cross this line.......Ok, THIS line......"

I suspect JM was creating pocket money for his high profile lifestyle. His parents may be rich but that doesn't mean they are giving little Johnny all the money he wants.

This looks very serious to me. I can't imagine why he would want to spend all the time signing autographs in Miami unless it were to make money. But as slow at the NCAA moves, JM may be drafted before there is a response.

You are so right. They move at the speed of glacier ice.

Re: Johnny Manziel investigated by NCAA

If he is ruled ineligible, isnt the penalty in these cases usually donate $$$ to charity and be re-instated after a 1 game penalty? Is there a slide scale of games vs $$$$?
