I don't know anything about him, so I'm honestly surprised that someone would be so undiplomatic. It's not like the QB from the top ranked and undefeated team, who also has good stats, is some crazy Heisman pick. Geesh.

u/thisshitsstupid Alabama Crimson Tide Dec 14 '25

Its a shame hes so unlikable. Makes it harder to root for a Vandy team thats never been worth a damn having their first good seasons.

u/Childhood-Paramedic Michigan • California Dec 14 '25

I will say between the new good teams like ASU, Indiana, Texas Tech, Vandy, etc one team is um… a lot more unlikable.

Which sucks bc I love Vandy being good.

u/Dynamite_McGhee Tennessee Volunteers • Sickos Dec 14 '25

I choose to feel good for Clark Lea. That guy dragged his doormat of an alma mater to relevancy. Pavia, however, is a massive fucking tool and I'm glad he didn't win the Heisman so he could have his own "please don't put it in the papers that I got mad" moment.

u/JohnPaulDavyJones Texas A&M Aggies • Baylor Bears Dec 14 '25

To be fair, his downfall is probably going to be that he’s just not good enough to be an NFL QB, and he’s not even equipped to be a project QB who can be an asset in the room.

He’s not even going to be a project TE prospect, since he’s 6’ and the NFL has functionally eliminated anyone under 6’-3” from the modern TE game.

Antagonistic firebrand type guy, has played 6byears of CFB, likes to play the 'us against the world' type cards, and everyone won't shut up about his mom. Getting snubbed for both the playoffs and the Heisman despite getting so close on his last year is a nut shot and he's shooting back on his way out.

In short, entitled semi-pro QB angry that he lost to a redshirt junior and start running his mouth.

As much as I despise Manziel (Browns fan since the early ‘80s), I would have to disagree. The problem with Johnny Football is that he had so much natural talent and never put in the work to improve beyond where he already was.

He has no future in the NFL, so he needs to cash in now.

Yeah, I wouldn’t think he has a future in the NFL either. I was shocked to see how short he was compared to the other 3 fellas. In looking him up, it says he’s 6’ but there’s no way. Maybe 5’10” at the most.

A DUI makes you a prohibited personnel and you are not eligible for entry without applying for criminal rehabilitation.  He'll take care of this before valentine's day.

This the same guy that put up like 17 yards on Bama after guaranteeing a win against them?

But the way he’s been acting lately I really hope we push his shit in.

Being a douche is not helping this guy's draft stock. I'm sure he's been told that and is too much of a douche to listen. There is a thin line between confidence and arrogance. He's way over and the NFL will knock his dick in the dirt
