How is it that he can flaunt the fact he was getting paid, doing drugs and just making a mockery out of the sport in general and get to keep his Heisman trophy? Reggie Bush did much less and was stripped of his trophy and treated like a criminal. The scum bag Johnny is celebrated now. He should be stripped of his Trophy just like Reggie Bush.

Because manziel autograph money didn’t come until after he won kind of like usc co title in 2003 that wasn’t vacated, it only impacted 2004 title

The fake drug testing should have resulted in harsher suspension and the paid autograph scandal should have resulted in longer suspension with the rules in place at time considering what they did to Terrell Pryor

TAMU should be investigated and hammered for what they allowed.

A&M should definitely vacate the wins. There is some lying if they say they didn’t know what was going on. The reason it was no longer fun to him was because he wasn’t considered a god anymore. It was like every game was LSU for him now.

The NCAA and the Heisman are such a joke. I’m no USC fan, but Bush was one of the most exciting college players that I’ve seen.

You make a compelling argument.

What about Cam Newton?

Yea. Either they return Reggie's Heisman trophy, or they need to take away Manziel's.

I'm just wondering about the tax implications. Manziel admitted to receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars under the table. I seriously doubt he paid any taxes on that. Any chance he's about to face a serious irs audit.

They should make him give his trophy to Reggie.

Johnny Failure literally couldn’t do anything right.

Including suicide.

Guess you idiots are forgetting the entire Bush Family lied about the fact they received a house plus a monthly stipend for the entire time Bush was at USC.

The whole NCAA system of enforcement is a hypocritical joke. Though I hated SC, Reggie's one of the most electrifying athletes to ever play the sport at the collegiate level, was like a video game.

I would say he should get Hunter Biden’s attorney to defend him, but now, probably not a good idea.

Ive never seen an alcoholic drug addict who says they want to live clean and then open a bar across the street from a major campus.

Most interesting change my life from drugs and alcohol to market a bar story.
