Whoa. Looks like it's going to be titled "Untold".

I listened to a few of his podcasts and they were pretty good.

Was interesting to know that he was being disciplined by having to run gassers before and after practice. Had to run them quite a bit and he credits a lot of his success to being in such good shape because of that. That made me laugh.

Probably need to give it a couple more years. The "doc on the crazy ass guy" format works best when all involved can look back with a more clear perspective.

Untold is the name of the series on Netflix, the Manti doc was also an Untold episode.

It's been the same amount of time as it was for the Manti doc...we all knew a Johnny doc was inevitable, I just always thought it was going to be a 30 for 30.

I think most non-Aggies didn't really tune into all things Johnny until the Alabama game. It was so crazy being an A&M fan in September/October 2012 knowing you were watching something utterly unique in the history of college football.

NO ONE had the 6th sense scrambling ability that Johnny had, the closest thing to it has been Kyler Murray but even he was different. Johnny would see a free pass rusher, literally run a full circle in the backfield, tiring out the rusher, and then somehow weave his way for a 20 yard gain. It was like watching a video game in real life.

It sounds dumb but the Ole Miss game in October 2012 is probably one of my top 5 favorite Aggie games of all time. We were dead to rights with a 3rd and 20+ from inside our own 5, and went on to score a touchdown in 3 plays to start our comeback and completely save the game and our season. My BAS temporarily died that day and didn't return until 2013. We ended with 2 losses on our record, but that team would have curb stomped Notre Dame had we played for some reason at the end of the season. Beat LSU and we would've had a legit chance at having a rematch in the championship against Bama.

Edit to add the specific drive I'm talking about in case anyone forgot:

Ten years is enough time. The Manti Te'o hoax was 10 years ago. All the parties had a much clearer perspective and the documentary was great.

I thought the Manti doc was good and I'm really looking forward to this one.

Bro are you trying to kill us. Four minutes of that video and you have Evans bailing out Johnny, Sumlin's glassy-eyed clapping while chewing gum, Bertoilet whiffing an XP, dime corner TD to Swope.....I need to take a heartburn pill thanks

Well look on the bright side: at least our guy was getting real ass rather than fake ass like ND's guy.

Johnny was a phenomenon. He was 1 in 100 billion. No college football player will ever match what happened to him. He was sought after by Lebron and Drake. He was known by people who never watched college football.

In the end, his persona was his downfall, but he will always have a place in my heart. I hope all is well with him and that he is living a good life. I admire his bravery and I would gladly buy him a drink, be it beer or root beer. The guy is a legend and I am honored to have watched him make Texas A&M the talk of the football world and beyond for 2 seasons.

Well, he's getting inducted into the A&M HOF tonight, you might find him somewhere later.

Evan's catch on 3rd and 19 might have been the Aggie's play of the year.

In all my years as an Aggie Football fan, I have never felt such a calm confidence on third downs as I did when Johnny was here.

To say it will never happen again, is insane, especially with NIL, just takes the right personality. Most of the antics will also be hidden as best possible due to nil/social media as well.

JFF just tweeted it himself. It's happening? Copy/Paste fail. Trying again!

Yes, because the release of this episode is directly correlated with whether we'll win a natty or not.
