Johnny Manziel Admits To Getting Paid While In College

Former Heisman winner turned NFL burnout Johnny Manziel is the poster boy of how not to act as a professional. Johnny was a party animal in his college days, making headlines for his off the field activities, and less for his QB play. He’ll go down as a cautionary tale for QBs entering into the NFL.

He had a much more successful college career, where apparently he was getting paid, which is clearly against NCAA rules and regulations.  Johnny was getting paid to sign autographs, that was already known. Now Johnny is coming clean, and fully admitting to taking money to live.

Is anyone really surprised? College athletes need money just like the rest of us,  and the pressure to be a baller at that level is immense.

Good for Johnny for coming clean. Rovell somehow made the story about him.

What a turd.
