NCAA is so fricked up. This kid can profit off his name but Ohio St. players can't sell bullshite trinkets, that Wisconsin wrestler can't tell people to download his stuff off ITunes, etc. Hope Miami blows the NCAA up.

Right

The creator of the video would deserve some credit. Mike Linebackers is the one that suggested the nickname. Tigerdroppings was the vehicle that facilitated the nickname going viral and landing in the media.

Uh no. Not only did "Honey Badger" not originate with Mathieu, but it had nothing to do with football. It was stolen from a YouTube video made by a flamboyant gay guy about the actual animal. Congrats on then IP theft?

Also, you can't fricking trademark as animal's name.

it used the concepts of the video "not giving a frick" to apply the term to a football player

Manziel needs to get a nose job with the winnings of this lawsuit if he's to ever make big in Hollywood

Just imagine how much money the Fab 5, Phi Slam a Jamma, The Doc of Dunk or any college athlete could earn by marketing themselves.

It would help keep money in those players pocket and keep agents & runners away a little longer.

Also player may stay in school a little long.

Player like Jabari Parker, The Harrison Twins or Leonard Fourette could keep money in there pockets without breaking any rules
