I am not so sure about that but he did say he was still a little perturbed that he didn't get him but not for the player but for the promotion. According to them, they spent their entire 15 interview minutes on his off field behavior. Not a better red flag than that.I totally disagree with that. Jerry definitely wanted Johnny
What I think happened was the old PT Booger got excited when he began to fall because they'd projected him to be gone. I think he started quick selling himself off the vibe they got in the interview. I predicted he would be a Cowboy early in his freshman year because of the light shining on him for marketing and the fact he was an Aggie. Booger could fill that stadium with the Aggie alums just in that area and sell all of them a wardrobe of #2 jerseys.
That comment Parcells made about keeping Booger from his tendencies was job 1 for everybody in that war room, because he saw a promotable star unlike any he'd never seen before, the best center ring attraction in all sports. Plus, that money sign than Manziel made warmed Booger's heart every time he saw it.
However, if he'd wanted Manziel that bad, he would have been a Cowboy.
