It doesn't appear Hall of Fame coach Barry Switzer is a big fan of former Texas A&M star Johnny Manziel.

The former Oklahoma Sooner head-man spoke about the man known as Johnny Football on CBS Sports Radio 920 Wednesday morning.

"He's an arrogant little pr**k," Switzer said of Manziel.

"I don't like his antics. He's embarrassed himself, he's embarrassed his teammates, he's embarrassed his coach."

Despite those strong words, Switzer made it clear that he believes in Manziel's talent.

"He's the best that I've seen," Switzer declared. I have never seen a quarterback in college football take control of a game like he does and put up the numbers he does. The guy is fantastic. What he's done against good competition. Game after game after game he puts numbers up that are staggering."

It appears respect and admiration can be two very different things.
