Johnny football saying he made $

That’s actually awesome

A great quote from the actual interview is left out but it was something like

“If the NCAA wants to come take away my 9-4 season and my Chick Fil A bowl against Duke…frickin blow me”

I’ve always enjoyed Johnny. He kept things interesting

quote:

---

I never took a dollar until after I won the Heisman, and I think my statute of limitations are up. So, you can blow me."

It was a funny interview. Johnny Football still doesn't give a frick. He had to be a coaching nightmare. Too talented to bench or control for Sumlin and Kingsbury. That weekly party story and the dedicated guy to scoop Manziel up for school and practice was classic and exactly how I've imagined his college football career.

That said, Heisman can do what they want. There is no statute of limitations for them. But, zero % chance they are taking a Heisman back over a NIL individual profit effort.

On the other hand, NCAA are some petty bitches. They may not like the bragging and open declaration that they can "blow him." There is "generally" a 4 year statute of limitations, but there are exceptions.

quote:

19.5.11 Statute of Limitations. Allegations included in a notice of allegations shall be limited to possible violations occurring not earlier than four years before the date the notice of inquiry is provided to the institution or the date the institution notifies (or, if earlier, should have notified) the enforcement staff of its inquiries into the matter. However, the following shall not be subject to the four-year limitation: (Adopted: 10/30/12 effective 8/1/13)
(a) Allegations involving violations affecting the eligibility of a current student-athlete;
(b) Allegations in a case in which information is developed to indicate a pattern of willful violations on the part of the institution or individual involved, which began before but continued into the four-year period; and
(c) [b]Allegations that indicate a blatant disregard for the Association’s fundamental recruiting, extra benefit, academic or ethical-conduct bylaws or that involve an effort to conceal the occurrence of the violation. In such cases, the enforcement staff shall have a one-year period after the date information concerning the matter becomes available to the NCAA to investigate and submit to the institution a notice of allegations concerning the matter[/b].

A stance of frick your rules and blow me on a public forum may fit the bill for sub-paragraph c, BUT probably not. NIL era is upon us and opening cans of worms for past transgressions that 90%+ of top tier athletes are already doing is a dangerous game.

That said, it would be funny if his mouth got aTm in trouble. The NCAA loves to punish kids and programs years later for individuals actions they had nothing to do with.

Been going on for years in CF. Do you remember T-Town Menswear ?

I remember Eric Ramsey and some of the most severe NCAA penalties that have been handed down. Whatever became of all that Menswear propaganda anyway?

He was a kid enjoying his life. This is the exact reason the NCAA needs to be updated and stop making money off the players.

Sounds like this was all on his own back alley deals, not boosters or the athletic department.

That was with Sumlin, can you imagine the money being thrown out for athletes now under the current Head Midget Jimbo?

Johnny should probably keep his trap shut. I have no problem with him doing what he did in college, partying, making money, etc, I think that its kind of awesome, but he shouldn't be blabbing about the money part. People that do that sometimes get whacked. Its always a good move to not talk about that kind of shite.
