Omar Manning done

[HerbRedman]

I assumed he was retiring, but he says COLLEGE football career is over. He thinks he's going to the NFL?

Ah what great memories, those few games should last a lifetime

It’s mind bottling how many shitty college players think they are NFL material.

 

[Herbie]

How many biletnikoffs did he win again?

 

[HerbRedman]

Sorry I thought he had a year of eligibility left!

He was actually at Nebraska for 3 yrs apparently.

 

[Pepe Silvia]

that reads like a retirement from football post. I'm pretty sure he's made posts in the past talking about that as a possibility

Arena league 2.

Maaaaan, I remember the night he committed. We had finally gotten a big body WR and things looked to be turning around.

What a wild ride it was with him here. I would love to know the actual full story behind him not playing the first year to barely ever getting reps. We get the stories told to the media but there has to be more.

He has documented mental health issues. Pretty sure that’s the full story.

I was really happy for him when he got that catch against Oklahoma. It will probably go down as the highlight of his 5 game career.

Catch that could not get overturned by video review*

Should pay the bills also!

Physically had it
Mentally not so much

I bet it pales in comparison to the number of shitty high school players that thought they were good yet accomplished less than 1% of those that were awarded a scholarship to play college football. It’s real hard to disrespect someone that did something that you wish you could have, even if he wasn’t all American.

Maybe but there are even a fair amount of players at UNK who think they are going pro. It’s laughable. Have some perspective.

 

[Huskerforlife]

Maybe he'll do well in Arena Football. But his tweet sounds like he's restiring from football.

Oh my God I remember when I was at Wayne State (student and intramurals brother) and was friends with some football guys.

They all talked about how there were guys on the team that were going to be drafted, ran 4.2 40s, etc.

If you went to Wayne state early 90s some actually did

Fuck. Fans are a bunch of assholes to their own.

A lot of people on this site think that the way to not be a potato is being cynical & condescending.

Best of luck to Manning in the future - I wish it would have come together for him more on the field, but I always appreciated how he tried to help people with mental health issues.
