Well what then?


I haven't read through this long thread. My issues with him are him:

Pushing a GA (huge no no imho to put your hands on a coach)

His constant bad body language

Everything ESPN says about him

Him taunting Rice

Etc...

No they aren't big issues except for pushing a GA but he comes across (and I obviously don't know him personally) as a huge douche. I will say ever since he has left Texas a&m I love what he's been saying. He's been humble and seems determined to work very hard in Cleveland. Is it just good coaching up by his agent? Idk.

Thanks. Good honest answers, which are hard to come by here.

Pushing a GA: From what I read the GA egged him on and was pretty much begging for it. But I may be wrong.

Body language: I don't care for the "cashing out" bit at all. It has apparently been around A&M longer than Manziel. Doesn't mean I have to like it. But he had help here.

ESPN is presumably outside his control. You get negative points for this.

Taunting Rice: This BUGGED THE CRAP OUT OF ME at the time. And then it turned out that the guy he was taunting was a guy he was very familiar with and had played against in HS. Rice guy started it by asking for an autograph as a jab at him. I admit it looked horrible and I was one who jumped on him for this. But I think he gets a pass on this, despite the 15-yd penalty.

And still... nobody has mentioned the one unforgivable sin. And you won't, because you don't get it any more than the young Communists Pinko Gays who call themselves Aggies these days. /rant
