Former Texas A&M LB Sean Porter fires back at Kyle Allen
Times are tough at Texas A&M.
The Aggies' quarterbacks are leaving the program, coaches are taking jobs elsewhere, and Heisman-winning alumnus Johnny Manziel isn't doing himself any favors in the NFL.
Yet when former quarterback Kyle Allen criticized the culture of the program Tuesday, those at Texas A&M were taken aback. Allen stated that the school is still feeling the remnants of the Manziel-influenced culture.
Former Aggie and current Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Sean Porter heard Allen, and took exception to his comments, telling him to take some ownership instead of complaining.

I think that's a cop out. Coach Kines always said "If u scared holler red rock & we'll get u outta there." Your L's own them buddy.

"They could act like that & still win games". Act like what. WINNERS. Watch the tape. We didn't stumble into those wins. That's work & more.

Best facilities in the country + upgraded stadium. + Sumlin pulling in top recruits. Embrace that. Take ownership. Win.

In two seasons, Allen has thrown for 3,532 yards, 33 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. He transferred to Houston to play for offensive-minded head coach Tom Herman.
