He did and got called out on it.

“To be trill, Hill will have to continue to shine with his play, but also be coachable, a leader for his teammates and carry himself with character, according to Bun B. The rapper has never met Hill, but plans to talk with him later this season when he visits Texas A&M."

"“I don’t want him to feel like it’s a judgment on him or anything like that,” Bun B said. “It’s just really early and one game, which was one incredible game, but we want to see a full season. It’s easy to be the man when you’re winning and you throw for over 500 yards, but let’s see how he handles the rough times like after a loss.”"

"Bun B and Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin are friends dating back to Sumlin’s previous job as coach at Houston. The sports-savvy rapper is also friends with former Aggies quarterback Johnny Manziel."

"With Hill succeeding Manziel, Bun B understands the comparison between the two. “It’s a great thing to be compared to such a competitor like Johnny especially as the Texas A&M quarterback,” Bun B said. “It’s Kenny’s time to prove what he can do. It’s Kenny’s time to be his own man and to earn his own nickname and to not feel like he’s the second coming of Johnny.”"

"Bun B will be keeping tabs on Hill this season. And if Hill keeps it trill, Bun B just might have another song for him to listen to. The rapper said he’d consider making a song for Hill and the Aggies like he did for Houston during Sumlin’s final year in 2011. That’s if Sumlin is interested."

"“Coach is about wins,” Bun B said. “He’s not about songs and praise too early. Let’s say maybe after they win conference and that [playoff]. That’d be a good time.”"

If I recall correctly, he started against Arkansas and dropped some dimes on them while Marshall was suspended for the first half. Looked really, really good. He had potential, just had terrible habits and couldn't deal with the pressure.


You recall correctly. He went 8-8 with 204 yards an two TDs in 17 minutes of football, finished the half 12-16 with 243.

I mean it was hard not to have been hyped up. Felt like we weren't going to skip a beat with him after Marshall was gone.

Then Louisville, Jacksonville State and LSU happened. Biggest WTF I've had in 10 years was how badly he melted.

All of which ended up being his career highs.

He struggled against UofL, but most of us attributed it to his first game as the #1 guy. Then Jax State happened.

Even then, I remember my cousin calling me the morning of the LSU game and saying, “Today, at long last, folks are gonna see the REAL JJ.”

He wasn’t wrong

Jeremy was consensus pre season Heisman favorite even by the media before his first snap his starting season


no tf he wasn't, quit making shite up.

He was mentioned in some articles as a potential candidate, but he wasn't in the top 10 for odds.

grantland.com

Trevone Boykin and Ezekiel Elliott were the consensus preseason favorites.

The favorites from the SEC were Fournette, Chubb, and Derrick Henry.

Jeremy Johnson wasn't even the favorite QB from the SEC, Dak Prescott was.

He literally was, search his name in google or YouTube, ask anyone that saw his first 4 games, I actually watched his first start that year, Auburn had just won the Championship

I could see him being a lights out recruiter in Texas. I wondered what ever happened with him

2015 preseason Heisman odds

Seems you remember wrong. I’m not picking and choosing. Going down the list of first page on Google.

There was a group of Auburn fans that hyped him up but not nearly the consensus you thought he was. He’s barely listed on some of these lists.

And I’m pretty sure me and Bowl watched more than the first 4 games
