Johnny probably came up with his own nickname.


This is not allowed in sports... Only one person has been able to pull it off from what I have seen in recent years.

I was thinking more recently about this guy:



But if we are going back to Deion's time... I agree... how can you leave him out???



ETA - I seriously doubt Manziel came up with that name on his own... would be a way too stereotypical Aggie move for it to be true!

Judging solely by this antiquated knickname, I expect the TAMU coeds to wear jumpers, keep billowy unshaven bushes, and engage in heavy "peting" at the drive in after the tenth date.
