HE DOES NOT NEED MONEY.

10 days to negotiate a contract with a league that pays everyone the same seems odd. Maybe his brilliantly orchestrated exit from the CFL is aimed higher. Standing by for Vander's update.

My update. Jja79 thinks he is funny but in reality he's not.
That is all
You said it was a calculated move on his part. Not trying to be funny. The move doesn't seem to have worked so far. Do you have more information? Seriously.
Johnny is gonna be playing in San Antonio
Not here to pick sides in your love spat with Vander, but (on the surface) so far you're right.jja79 said:

It's been 2 weeks since the CFL sent him walking and there's been nothing brewing in the news. The AAF season is half over and he doesn't need another walk-in experience with another not so good team. So either he's about to break into the NFL as a backup (yawn, not exciting), or he's going to be the good boy turned bad boy turned good boy poster child for the XFL.
Bring back the HeHateMe jersey... Johnny is gonna need it.
If you aren't being a smartass and want the latest. The AAF should be making a decision any day now and most likely by Tuesday because that is when the business week closes for the AAF. Sounds like that is the hold up now.
Got that from a quick Google search.

I think you are right. Sounds like they want him.
Pga, it's not to late.
Johnny played well in his 8 games with the Alouettes and won the last two. He is at least better than half the backups in the NFL. His football playing career is not over.
He is better than either of the 2 QB's the Commanders have on the team now. Decent team but below average QB's.

They have to wait for the week to close? How is that a hold up? They can't do business Wed through Monday?

Sorry I wasn't clear. The article said San Antonio is waiting for league officials and they are expecting to hear something before the end of the business week.

Oh, that makes sense. Thanks.
Why would he bail on the CFL (as it looks like he intentionally did) to go the AAF, particularly with the season mostly over?
He'll step in with San Antonio (maybe), look like he doesn't know the offense (which he won't, though I'm sure it's dumbed down in this league), probably either get wrecked or look inept and ordinary behind inferior OLine play over a short stretch of games insufficient to prove anything to anybody, and then sit by the phone hoping he gets a 3rd string contract in the NFL.
As for that, I don't know why any team would willingly choose the distraction for the minimal upside that he seems to represent.
He needed to make it work in the CFL. He needed to suck it up and try to give them some value for the chance they extended to him. It might have demonstrated that he's not just a 'me' guy.
He could have come back next year, played the full season, and then evaluated his options. Maybe he would have been successful enough to have some good ones. Now, he's just running out of leagues.
I'm going to really, really hate it if Skip Bayless was right, but, it really, really doesn't look good...
It likely wouldn't have mattered in the overall arc, but he should have played another year at A&M. It's the only successful football he's seen since Tivy...
(At least it turns out that his spouse is apparently a world-class distance runner...)

totally agree about staying in the CFL , the reason to go AAF. is he is available to get an invite for an NFL camp this summer. JFF is optimistic to a fault Imo making the same mistake he made leaving TAMU. Stay one more year and much more likely to be successful
Unless his parents are funding him, odds are his lifestyle choices and legal bills have sucked a lot of his cash away by now. Browns paid him $8 million in 2015 and in May of 2017 he was worth half that. CFL pays about $54,000 a year.vander54 said:jsdaltxag said:

It is 100% unequivocally over. There is no chance anyone but the new league brings him in.

In May 2017 it was $6 million.
Apparently it is still estimated at $6 million as of February.
Their business week, according to you is over. What's the hold up now?
I want the best for him but people who can't hold a job usually need to look at themselves.

He will get a shot with an AAF team

Yes.

Johnny XFL will be great. Cant wait for those wrestling inspired promos of him partying and living it up. Hope he gets on the Houston team
I still don't get why he bailed on the CFL...HustlerAggie said:
Yes.
My 16 year old son was talking about Trayveon Williams today and as he finished he said TW is the exact opposite of Johnny. One gives everything and the other seems not to to GAF.
Just hope he's not counting on his podcast career.

No offense, but your son doesn't know what he's talking about. Looking at both college careers, you can't deny Johnny didn't give everything while wearing the maroon and white.
Have to agree. Johhnys post Aggie career may be crap my dude. But he gave it all for TAMU. Remember that Duke bowl game? Dude left it all on the field.aTm2004 said:jja79 said:

I think he was comparing their work ethic off the field, studying, lifting, practicing, etc.
Well I don't know anything about either guys studying (how would one know this?), lifting, practicing etc. I only have watched them play in games. Both were great for TAMU football.HoustonAg2106 said:rough_stock said:Have to agree. Johhnys post Aggie career may be crap my dude. But he gave it all for TAMU. Remember that Duke bowl game?

Post TAMU its obvious which one gives a fook.

Studying football wise like game film and playbooks, TW seems very willing to put in the work to be great, Johnny was not
Glad to see you have a crystal ball or you're psychic or something. You seem so definitive on the situation. Inside information from Moose?
