You've said this shite before and it makes you look like a clueless, bitter a-hole. What is the commercial value of taking a picture with Rick Ross or Gronk? You clearly don't understand how any of this shite works.
Have you ever paid to be in the VIP section of a club with an A-list celebrity and had unlimited access to said celebrity or has that celebrity had their own section of VIP with controlled access? Therefore you "paid" to be in VIP with some additional "pull" is needed for you to actually gain access to the celebrity.
For JFF his "pull" is not his parents having the money for him to travel to these locations but using his status as the "aTm Heisman winning QB Johnny Football" to gain access that would not be available to general student even those who's "parents have money"
*Edit Right now this isn't an issue for the NCAA, but when other athletes realize it isn't and begin to take advantage it will be
Call me a hater all you want. But any reasonable individual knows that JFF will not have a long-term, successful career if he continues to party like a rockstar Name me one person who has?

I just hope each & every SEC team hangs all these photos up in locker room b4 playing A&M next year. Dude needs a serious wake up call. He WILL NEVER have the season he just had again....enjoy pimple faced friend
So much hate and so much dreamin. Sorry dude, JFF is just livin the dream. The guy is extremely smart, he is an academic junior at A&M's prestigious B School and apparently is carrying a high GPA. He has family money and parents that raised him right and are making sure he is being careful. If his parents aren't with him he always has a shadow, typically a highly responsible Sr on the Football team. A&M has hired 2 full time people just to track down anyone abusing the JFF brand and clear everything he does through what is recognized as the best compliance organization in FBS (A&M got very serious about it after the '94 probation).
Will he be focused next year? Well, if anything in the CB he used the 'hatin to his advantage and played with a vengeance to set a ton of records on OU and made them look like JV squad. He is very well respected by other SEC players, just ask Sam Montgomery about him. Johnny is the kind of guy if you sack him he tells you "good play". He balances being uber competitive and physically talented with an appreciation for the fact it is a game and having fun.
FWIW, he isn't doing much different now than before he was a celeb outside of being around famous people. He is a sports fanatic in a sports fanatic family. Just loves to see competition, no matter who is playing. He's not doing it to be noticed, he's doing it because that's what he likes to do.
Dude is just a unique guy. Never seen anyone like him, may never be another one like him. Just too much about him that defies conventional wisdom. As an Ag I am just going to enjoy the ride while we can, he's our Herschel or Bo or Tebow.

Ok you have to be trolling. By your definiton, anyone who gains any kind of attention from their college career is violating NCAA rules.
Go home barner, you're drunk.

If any fan base in the SEC understands the NCAA an Auburn fan does. We also don't act like teenage girls slurping jizz when it comes to our players
There's a big difference in Gronk approaching JFF vs JFF approaching Gronk and that's the violation. I'm not stating that this is what's happening but if it is, it's an NCAA issue

No, that's not even close to a violation--you're just mad cuz you wanted to meet Gronk, hence this pathetic thread

Yes you are, otherwise you wouldn't have brought it up

Also, if it's no big deal why is Manziel the only CFB player jetting around the country living the high life. I can't think of anyone else living such a lavish lifestyle?

Do you even read the responses you get? Manziel's had teammates accompany him on many of these excursions.
Also, if you really believe he's the ONLY cfb player from a wealthy family that's enjoying the offseason flying around the country and enjoying life, then you're incredibly naive.
Not his fault his family has money and isn't afraid to spend it.

Ok Aggies there's absolutely nothing questionable, suspect, and/or out of the ordinary about JFF's lifestyle. It's completely normal, especially considering his family has money. Anyone that says otherwise is wrong and just wishes they could be him
Thx for keeping me entertained until Fosters announcement. This was a nice opening act for the nights headline comedian

His ONLY saving grace is that his parents seem to be with him everywhere.
Lame at the same time too. But, what a ride it must be.
nah man, his family is fun as hell to hang with.

doubtful. His mom is pretty good looking herself.

Well, guess y'all did your best impression of us when JFF waltzed into Jordan Hare and pillaged the place, then.

I think it's a combination of old money and his family owns a ton of businesses.

You beat the worse Auburn team in school history once but you took it up the azz from Texas for over a century, which would you prefer to acknowledge?
