    Taking four courses, all online, because he can't deal with the autograph hounds. O rly?

    Johnny Manziel has become the big man off campus.

    The Texas A&M quarterback and Heisman winner said Monday night at the Davey O'Brien Award reception that all of his classes for this semester are online, though Texas A&M spokesman Brad Marquardt refused to confirm or deny Manziel's schedule in a phone call with USA TODAY Sports.
    Manziel also told reporters at the reception that he's only on campus once every month.

    Though the arrangement might seem odd, Manziel is well within his rights to tackle his course load online. He even tried to take an English course on campus this semester but had to drop it when his peers' requests for photos and autographs became too much.

    "I didn't think anything of it, and it kind of turned into a little more of a big deal than I thought," Manziel said, according to the Associated Press.
    Manziel's various outings since winning the Heisman – sitting courtside at NBA games, attending the Super Bowl and being photographed at Mardi Gras – have been well do ented, and being under a microscope has taken a toll on him.

    "I know plenty of friends who went down to Mardi Gras to New Orleans and other guys who went to the Super Bowl too," Manziel said. "I was down there with other college football guys too, so I don't know, people like to give me a hard time more than others. There's college kids doing what I'm doing all around the country. People just think I'm going wild with it, when it's not like that."

    This isn't a special scenario tbh and it's happened a lot before. Jimmer Fredette was told by BYU to stop going to class because he was too much of a distraction when he was on campus.

    It's actually something he'd probably rather not have to do. There isn't a whole lot you can major in if you're restricted to online classes.

    Johnny Manziel is not a kook; he's a pioneer.

    That's funny. When I saw Ricky, he was usually walking by himself. But I don't want to mess up your nice story.

    I saw him after. He was a nice and cool of a ing person that you can be with all the surrounding him. Everyone just let him be. Except for UTPD.

    The players used to ride golf carts from the athletic complex to the practice facility. Now they just charter tour buses to take them over. Coddling.
