    RT @billyliucci: Latest on Manziel? Per multiple sources, he'll be suspended for first half of opener versus Rice on Sat

    Why are they suspending him? Too much media coverage?

    By the school or by the NCAA? Is this the end or just the beginning?

    I have never understood the idea of suspending a player for half a game.

    Jim Tressel would like to know who Kevin Sumlin has pictures of.

    Manziel's signature on the document agreeing to suspension will
    be worth a fortune.

    They're suspending him for the half of the game that Rice has the ball...

    The guy who is citing his sources is a fanboi messageboard operator. My guess is this "report" will turn out to be incorrect and Manziel either doesn't get suspended at all or misses the entire game/multiple games.

    The NCAA, to my recollection, has never handed out a "half game" suspension. Don't know why'd they'd do that here.
