I remember during the 2010 Heisman campaign, Heisman voters kept bringing up Cam Newton's past as it pertained to the Heisman. Some completely overlooked LaMichael James' DUI from earlier that year, while others also noted it. Within the Heisman creed are the words "integrity" (as we all know). While Cam Newton's and LaMichael James' pasts were brought up, why wasn't Johnny Manziel's? And did he ever even receive a punishment for it from the Texas A&M coaching staff?



My posting history speaks for itself; I'm not a Johnny Manziel hater. At all. Just looking for some answers.

It was fake ID after he got in a fight after a night at the bar.

Or his buddy started a fight. Johnny ended up involved.

And it was offseason. Sumlin punished him but it was resolved before the season started. And many media members voted Teo over Manziel because of character and integrity

I thought he was supposed to be suspended for a game, but the game was delayed?

My memory is foggy.

You're thinking of Jenkins & Matthews for the LA Tech game.

That was 2 other players. Suspended for La Tech game. They were a LB and a DB. As you can tell their backups weren't good and LT put up 50 on us


You're just confusing different incidences. Honest mistake

From that link

quote:

Manziel, a prep standout at Kerrville Tivy High School, redshirted last season. He was expected to compete for the starting job with sophomore Jameill Showers in the fall.


Was expected...but drinking underage cut his career short

Your memory is really hazy. Johnny Manziel's past was brought up ad nauseam by the national media.

Oh, and...
