We know where she stands on the issue ...

He is arguably the best ever. He certainly belongs in that coversation.

Michael Penix deserves some love

2012 team would have won the title had they not screwed the pooch vs LSU. Five turnovers and lost by 5 pts. Give LSU credit tho , they had a good plan. Coulda, shoulda, woulda … didn't.

I'm sure it's been discussed many times but UGA was no slouch that season and you can't assume A&M beats UGA in the SECCG. Definitely a possible win but not a gimme.

No. Not in the discussion. He was amazing to watch and brought us an enormous amount of attention.

MAYBE top ten.

Roger Staubach.

He was Johnny before Johnny.

Would've won 2 Heismans had he not been injured his senior year.

But I'd say it's those 2

Side note: Staubach also lettered in all 3 major men's sports during his 4 years at Navy. Scouts said he was good enough to go pro in all 3.

After Bo Jackson, Roger may have been the best college athlete ever

Staubach was chiseled like a Greek god. Unbelievable athlete.

Surprised nobody brought up Kellen Sully Mond yet.

It's because he doesn't belong anywhere near this conversation. Nor does any other A&M QB not named Johnny Manziel.

Vince Young was equally amazing though, for example. And Young was unstoppable in that game versus an all-time great USC team to win a natty. JFF was amazing too but if I had to choose college Vince versus college Johnny to QB my team, and trying to take any of my Maroon blinders off, would be a very hard choice. Go back and watch some VY highlights from that season they won natty.

Best I ever saw. Put up 42 points on Bama and lost. If we had had a defense back then, who knows?

Technically they did stop him.



Coulda, woulda, shoulda, but I don't think Texas gets a win with modern replay. That was a huge turning point

Now do Johnny without Evans. Still think he's the best?

---

The data analysis was done before. Evans accounted for something like 25% of his total yards and 17% of his total TDs. For comparison, Marvin Harrison accounts for higher percentages of Peyton Manning's totals than Evans does for Johnny. Recognizing Evans' greatness doesn't need to diminish Johnny's

No doubt. All the quarterbacks considered had great teams.

JFF also had 4 OL he played with go in the first round (pick #s 2, 6, 21, and 31), which is pretty good.

John Elway and Tim Tebow deserve some consideration. Elway with an inferior Stanford team, and Tebow despite his challenges in the Pros.
