Dallas--Last night I had the chance to meet Texas A&M quarterback and Heisman trophy winner Johnny Manziel at the Dallas Mavericks vs Miami Heat game. First impression was the fact that this kid is small! To watch what he has accomplished this season as the Aggies made their debut in the big bad SEC and know be eye to eye with the young man makes me realize why he is so special.He sat court-side as the Heat burned the Mavericks all game, but there was no big crowd around him for autographs or pictures. Just a few media people telling each other, "isn't that Johnny Football?"
With the success of smaller quarterbacks in the NFL lately, like RGIII and Russell Wilson, Manziel as a legitimate chance of throwing the ball on Sunday. It is going to take someone to overlook his stature and focused instead on his will.
