Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel was surprisingly replaced as the guest selector on ESPN’s “College GameDay” on Saturday for Texas A&M’s first-round game against Miami. Since Manziel was a no-show, Alex Caruso, a two-time NBA champion who played basketball at Texas A&M, stepped in as a guest receiver.
