I think he is back on campus. It was just last semester he wasn't there. His house is literally walking distance from Kyle I believe.

I was reading on twitter that he couldn't make it to class without people asking for autographs. I just don't see why the athletic department or JM2 himself would want to switch up the online schedule he had.

People laugh at A&M about it, but I understand it. I went to grad school with Steven McGee and he even had a hard time around campus. It was even a pain for him and he is no Johnny Football. I thought it was it a spring semester thing, but maybe not. He only has one semester of school to deal with anyway.

Online school is more viable these days anyway.

Jeez, how stupid would you feel running up to a classmate for an autograph?

Tebow, Leinart, Bush, Newton, Vince, Ricky Williams, etc. all managed to go to class but Johnny is the fricking Beatles.

It seems as if A&M is more cultish about it and he was their Jim Jones apparently.

To be fair we have no clue whether or not those guys actually went to class or not.

They are definitely cultish but Ricky and Vince were gods in Austin. No way stars from Bama, LSU, Ohio St., Michigan, and many other powerhouses can successfully navigate campus but this dude can't at A&M.

I think that most dudes on a college campus would be too embarrassed to go ask for a classmate's autograph, but A&M seems different

Doubt Johnny would be sitting in on every class if he went on campus either.

I have no doubt that their is some staffer at A&M athletic dept. logging on and doing Manziel's online coursework. I just am hesitant to believe those other guys were good students either.

Due to NCAA investigation, the Las Vegas Hotel has taken Texas A&M games vs Bama, Arkansas, Ole Miss, LSU & Missouri off the board.
