Tennessee Football: 5 realistic coaching options for the Vols

2. Johnny Manziel

When it comes to achievement in college football it doesn’t get much better than former Heisman trophy winner Johnny Manziel. Currently working on making an NFL return, Manziel has mentioned that he’d be interested in getting into coaching if an NFL career did not pan out. The Aggies reportedly have their eyes set on someone else leaving Manziel open for courting.

Manziel has shown himself to be more mature than he was in his college days. Let’s be honest, most of us have done some growing up since the late nights in places we probably shouldn’t have frequented when we were in our young 20’s. At least he’s not trolling Tennessee on Twitter like a former Vols coach.

Pros for Manziel include never losing a press conference, having the possibility of Lebron James and other members of his crew stop by games and the occasional “woah, what did he just do” moments scattered throughout every game. Yes, he’s reportedly out of eligibility, but that guy in a mustache wearing No. 2 in orange is starting to look kind of familiar. Are we sure that we’ve past the era of player-coaches?
