Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

Johnny Manziel’s Tivy team went on the road to face 3 time defending 4A Champion Lake Travis. Despite jumping out to a lead on them, Lake Travis came back to win 37-34. Tivy’s attempted game winning drive was stopped by an interception in the end-zone on 4th and goal.

Manziel, last weeks US Army Bowl National Player of the Week was held in check passing the ball for a season low 196 yards on 18-26 passing. With Tivy’s passing contained by the Cavaliers, Manziel did rush for 273 yards on 37 carries and 4 touchdowns.

He personally only accounted for 469 yards, I think we should pull his offer.

No kidding, he's not worth the paper the scholarship offer is written on.

Well I for one am glad that the universe is somewhat back in order. I haven't looked at the rules, but I could assume that being a demi-god gives you an unfair advantage in high school ball, which could have had a detrimental impact on his college eligibility.

Well you notice I did strip him of his Manzilla title for the week.

I suspect though with league play starting next week and these showcase tough OOC games over, getting to play against teams that his teammates can match-up better against, may result in some Texas azz kicking over the next few weeks. His numbers may go down though as he wont have to be such a one-man wrecking crew.

This kid is unreal. No wonder why Chip offered him on the spot at the camp. Please stay with us Manziel!

The problem is that I keep reading he will be all Texas A & M at some point.

He's pretty much gone...I've already taken him off of our list.

His loss. A&M almost lost to Florida International today.

Oh well, he probably wasn't going to see the field for several seasons anyways. We have DT for another 2 seasons and then probably Bennett after that for 2 more. It may hurt for depth reasons, but I'm comfortable enough with the other 2 QBs in this class and then they'll take one or 2 in the 2012 class.

Except they did: http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/recap?gameId=302610245

Cyrus Gray scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 40-yard run with about 4½ minutes remaining and Texas A&M rallied to escape with a 27-20 win over Florida International on Saturday night.

Well that sucks...this kid is a true gamer!

That does suck. After following what they're doing this season, it sounds like Manziel could turn out to be the best of the QB group Oregon has verbals from, despite what the stars are.

This tweet, as well as all the recent articles, seem to be written with a very obvious A&M slant. Not that they aren't true, but it's hard to say for sure since their bias is so evident.

It'd be a tough loss considering he may be the best (or at least most ready to play) of the 3, but I'd still be content with the duo of Mariota/Randall. A lot of potential there.

...One thought though, I wonder if Hundley would have considered us a little harder with only 2 QB commits as opposed to 3...
