A&M Commerce should be very very worried. After all the NCAA has to punish somebody. Johnny Football gets told not to do it again, agrees to pay back the money (feigns ignorance which isn't hard for an Aggie), and then the NCAA punishes A&M Commerce.

as wrong as that would be, sounds about right.

AJ Green was suspended for 4 games at Georgia simply for selling ONE OF HIS JERSEYS!
If this is true that Manziel received 4 to 5 figures, watch out!

Norm talking about it right now. Says that the Aggie camp has already started to "discuss" potential other plans in the event something does go down.
I think he's getting busted. No big news yet, but I think he's sitting by the end of next week.

I don't know much about it but I would be shocked if anything happened this season. I just don't see the NCAA getting [deleted] one of the big boys with a returning Heisman winner. I could see the NCAA lowering the boom on A$M Corpus Christi but not on a SEC member.

If the NCAA wants to punish him, they will find the evidence. I heard about this from a dealer at a collectibles show in April. Ask the right people and you will get answers. It is one thing for him to show up at the NBA Finals and claim that his family is wealthy and paid for the tickets. It is another thing for him to sign hundreds of autographs for a dealer without any compesation.

Supposedly, this is just a photo from a "freebie" he did before the Bama game. Not of the actual "alleged" paid event. *Guess I should have added, this is what the Aggie board is claiming.*
IMHO, the most disturbing thing about this was when I learned he had a "personal assistant". Really? How does that guy get paid? And what would his job responsibilities entail? Or is he simply this dude's [deleted]?! Wish I would have thought of that when I was in school.

His family has enough money to pay for a personal assistant. I do not see any cash or checks in the photo so it can't be proven in the photo that he was paid anything.

If JFF isn't playing, we could have a solid chance in that game

No we wouldn't-but I believe a 4 game suspension is just about right.

Bama's T. J. Yeldon has a lot of autographed items for sale as well by brokers. Wonder why the NCAA isn't investigating this.

They should have hired him a Sober Companion and made sure that person had some judgment.

FWIW, Vegas has removed the line off of all A&M games.

I'm sure that is standard operating procedure for something like this but Vegas also seems to know what is going on before most of us do.
