Texas A&M and Johnny Manziel: a contradiction of terms

We all know Aggies pride themselves on being friendly and good hosts to visiting fans, etc. This is symbolized by their official greeting: Howdy!
I can say that I very much felt welcomed on my trip to College Station. Aggies are in fact very nice, I will admit that. Most of their fanbase is very humble and are much better than most fans of Texas teams in that regard. Aggie fans are cool with me as far as I'm concerned.
However, Johnny Manziel is cut from a different cloth. He is arrogant, in-your-face, and boastful. He doesn't shy away from the spotlight...at ALL. His tweets of "KEEP HATING" do not match what we have grown to know and love from the Aggie faithful. He is the least humble college football player in America and he loves it. This swagger is more in keeping with the university located in Austin.
The number of prideful, cocky Longhorns players to strap on cleats is too great to count. Their fans take pride in it, in fact. I believe it is one of the many things we all despise about the Longhorns. So how does it come to be that the Aggies, proud only of their kindness and hospitality, are cheering for the most arrogant player in the sport? Is it that they secretly like the feeling of cheering for a Longhorn-esque player, watching him do to other teams what has been done to them for decades? The answer to this question, I don't know. Can any Aggie fans help me out??

Your Les Miles thread gets whacked and then you come with this?

It's funny because if Mack Brown wasn't a dipshit, Johnny Manziel would be a longhorn right now. He still wants to be a longhorn.

That Les Miles thread was a good thread. I was sad to see it go
ETA: I will not discuss that thread further for fear of retribution

I went to a Christmas party with a bunch of Aggies. This was right free he got the heisman.
I had a conversation with an older aggie there and i remember him commenting on how humble and well spoken/behaved Manziel was.
I need to give that guy a call sometime. Talk some SEC football.

Which kinda goes along with the point of this thread. Hooking up with women is not a very "Aggie" thing to do.
