@ Five: I saw Pavia give Heisman poses after naking big plays, This Johnny Manziel stuff does not fly in the NFL draft. He probably lost millions with his big mouth.
Equally newsworthy is the atrocious reaction of Vanderbilt’s Diego Pavia, who lost to Mendoza. Pavia stated “screw the voters.” Does that mean “screw” even the ones that voted for Pavia? While this man has since apologized for his outburst, the damage has been done. I wonder: if Diego had won this thing, would he have been happy to hear that kind of reaction from the others who lost?
