IFWT_Ricky Williams 13

Who better to talk about controversy than Ricky Williams?!  He knows all about it.  Johnny Manziel has been under the microscope for a while now and Ricky (he won the Heisman in 98) was asked about it at a press conference.  The guy didn’t hold back on his opinion.

Since officially retiring from the NFL in 2011, Williams agreed this past July to become the running backs coach at the University of the Incarnate Word in San Antonio. Asked about Manziel at his introductory press conference, Williams didn’t hold back on the Texas A&M QB, but he also didn’t absolve the media of blame.

Williams’ point about the media is indeed a fair one, as it’s been just as much at the root of Johnny Mansanity this offseason as has the quarterback’s exploits.

In Williams’ words:

“You know once you win the Heisman Trophy, there’s going to be more attention on you,” the former University of Texas star said to KEYE TV. “You are probably not going to be able to get away with all the stuff you got away with before. To the media I would say, if the media did their research on who this kid was, nobody would be surprised.”
