When does the conversation about Stoops being overrated begin?

I don’t know, he didn’t seem bad in the highlights.

This is because his faux enthusiasm is constant, so big plays are the only time he is an adequate football announcer. I used to like Davis, but was watching this game with some friends, and one pointed out Davis’ chronic use of the rhetorical question. It is highly annoying.

“Texas A&M is tough to defend. Why? Because they play with great pace and Johnny Manziel is a special football player”

Unless Chris Fowler is a solid 6’7″, I remember Manziel looking about 5’10″ or so standing next to him. I would find it hard to believe his listed height is legit.

He is one of the smallest qbs I have ever seen, and he runs really well. That combo is not common.

he is tiny. I don’t get how he does what he does

cmon now. plenty of small folks have done well in cfb and nfl. i’ll start with hester, darrell green…

i’m guessing you mean at QB, but much of what makes him special is his running, so my point stands

And he was as bad as he ever was. Holy shit. I can’t believe he has a job.

I don’t know, he didn’t seem bad in the highlights.

And I look forward to seeing Johnny Football wreak havoc in the SEC for at least another 2 seasons.

Johnny is awesome, it just blows my mind. I saw him up close last night, and he is tiny. I don’t get how he does what he does. Aggie will be a force next year.

And he was as bad as he ever was. Holy shit. I can’t believe he has a job. There must be a bunch of high schoolers that love his stuff, because I can’t imagine any rational sports watching adult to like his fake enthusiasm. He is so bad.

I know one guy who absolutely loves his schtick, and he just so happens to write for this site…

Gus Johnson is THEE worst. WORST.

I never heard of this Thayer Evans before today but on SI.com he is already on the “wait til next year” dirge. New OC, new line, Johnny has been spending too much time on Letterman, blah blah blah. Evans sounds like a real douchebag with a grudge.

Gus Johnson was on the call.

Manziel was a beast. Dayem.

That was just a ridiculous performance.

/Thayer Evans still wouldn’t have him on his Heisman ballot.
