Lots of people have opinions on Manziel, but old Oklahoma coach Barry Switzers is pretty darn classic.

 



 

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;">Former Oklahoma coach Barry Switzer went on the radio with “The Morning After” show on CBS Sports 920AM in St. Louis, and the Sooners legend has some VERY mixed reviews of NFL first round-hopeful Johnny Manziel.

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;">Specifically, he doesn’t seem to like the phenom quarterback’s off the field personality:

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;"> 

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;">Barry Switzer on @TMASTL: "I don't like Johnny Manziel's antics. I think he's an arrogant little p.r.i.c.k."

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;"> 

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;">Harsh words coming from a big name in the football world like Switzer. So does that mean that he wouldn’t want Manziel on his team? Not quite:

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;">Barry Switzer right now on @TMASTL. He compares Johnny Manziel to Michael Jordan and Oscar Robertson.

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;"> 

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;">Barry Switzer on Manziel: "I've never seen a CFB QB do what he does. It's staggering…He's the most dominant CFB QB I've seen in a long time"

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;"> 

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;">Barry Switzer: If Manziel is there for the Rams at #2, you draft him.

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;"> 

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;"> 

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;">Interesting comments from Switzer, especially from an Oklahoma guy and when Sam Bradford is already the established quarterback in St. Louis.


<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;"> 

<p style="font-size:12px;color:rgb(64,64,64);font-family:'Open Sans', sans-serif;">The interview gave me a pause, laugh, a chuckle, and even a few eyebrow rises. Very interesting to say the least.
