Hey, WOW!

A thread that doesn't look like "Invasion of the Profile Snatchers"!

Have to agree... IIRC, as soon a TAMU showed serious interest, the idea of playing close to family started becoming part of Manziel's conversations.

If I remember correctly, Manziel said that his family wouldn't be able to see him play. Not because of the distance, but because of finances. I got the impression if he was from a rich family, he would be a duck.

My post was meant to be sarcastic and in response to the assertion that Manziel was "pissed off" that the coaching staff offered Randall (posted below).

Manziel stated that he wanted his parents to be able to watch him play and Texas A&M is a pretty good program.
