Let it be known that I was an early Diego Pavia hater.
Welcome to the party, pals.

Diego Pavia
- Thread starter Faustdog
- Start date
…was a great college player, but seems like a huge douche.
Yes. First Heisman finalist to go undrafted since 2014
So saying he was being mentored by Manziel didn’t help? Odd
One of the many players about to have to enter the real world and take a massive pay cut. Shoot, even some of the guys who got drafted are taking a pay cut
Pavia was a Kroger brand Johnny Manziel
man don’t be hating on Kroger. Maybe great value but Kroger is where it is.
Yeah boy...private selection all up in this mother.
Yeah Diego I hear Calgary is fine place. You will get use to the fast paced Canadian three down system in no time.
Five foot seven , 30 yo quarterbacks rarely get drafted.
Hey Diego, give this guy a call. He was the NFL Mr Irrelevant draftee his Sr year (kind of like you) and his pro career was great, once he made it to Canada. Load up your family and your possee and head North 
I’d argue he’s a phenomenal athlete and not slightly above average. Just doesn’t have the build.

Drafted.
Undrafted.
Undrafted is a perfect example of what happens when you refuse to shut the **** up. You know, when your mouth stays open, bugs tend to fly in it. Close your mouth kids, it will get you places.

Pavia was never going to make it in the NFL. He’s 5’8. But listen retards, y’all need to fathom what he just did. Jay Cutler played 12 years in the NFL & threw for over 35,000 yards in his career. He never had a winning season at 17ing Vanderbilt. Never saw a bowl. Diego Pavia just showed up at the shittiest program in CFB history in the toughest conference and went 17-9. It’s 17ing unprecedented. Manziel isn’t a good comp as he had every advantage at A&M surrounded by 5-stars & unlimited budget. You don’t want to like Pavia off the field? That’s fine. Considering what he just did at 17in Vanderbilt, he’s better than any QB we’ve ever had in school history outside of Dak.
Just too short for the NFL. Period. He was told he was too short for real college footbsll but certainly over achieved.
Actually, what they did is go 10-3 and lose to every good team they played. The three teams they played that finished ranked in the top 25? Yeah, they lost to all of them. Still impressive for Vandy. But Vandy was the 15th-20th best team this year, tops.
On another thread I made this same post about the 2014 football team. Beat one team who finished ranked—8-5 (!) #24 Auburn. Lost to all the actually good teams we played. 10-2 doesn’t mean jack if you didn’t beat anybody good.
Thank you Mrs Pavia for that in depth analysis. Now, get on the bus and head North of the border, and don't look or come back South

You think jay cutler had the talent around him pavia did? You think he faced the same schedule?
stfu
Wait, you think Vandy is talented? They are consistently last or next to last in the SEC in recruiting. The schedule is about the same. Vandy has roughly 100 years of football history and your reasoning that they had 2 good years isn’t the Heisman runner up, it’s their talent and schedule? Are you high?
wtf are you talking about
we are comparing Diego douche bag to jay cutler
Good college qb
Never will be a good nfl qb
Huge 17ing douche bag
You are comparing Diego pavia to jay cutler and making an argument Diego is better.
who’s 17ing high?
Didn't Vanderbilt/Pavia beat Alabama in the 24/25 season when Alabama was ranked #1?
Yep.
Discounting what Pavia did for Vandy, especially that year, is dishonest.
You can make the (correct) argument that he should not have been playing this year. And he’s also a poster boy for pushing things that are ruining college sports. So I will never root for him due to that.
Diego Pavia had a bigger impact at Vanderbilt. That’s the comparison. It’s not close. You’re just making a dumb argument because you don’t like him. I didn’t like Manziel but saying he wasn’t a great CFB QB would be asinine. Johnny Football was infinitely better college qb than Ryan Tannehill. Ryan went on to get drafted in the 1st rd and has thrown for nearly 35k yards in his pro career. No one in their right mind would argue Ryan was a better college QB. You’re being ridiculous
