Rick Neuheisel sang a country song about Johnny Manziel to the tune of ‘El Paso’ (Video)

Every great story needs a country song, and we've now got one about Johnny Manziel and Texas A&M's loss to Alabama courtesy of former Colorado and UCLA coach Rick Neuheisel.

Neuheisel broke out the guitar on the Dan Patrick show for his ode to Manziel, set to the tune of the famous country song "El Paso." (The Pass? Get it?)

This isn't the first time that Neuheisel, now an analyst for the Pac-12 Network, has showed off his musical chops. He's played the guitar before on Patrick's show, and the man plays a mean guitar to Jessie's Girl.

Johhny Football. Where can I find a quarterback like that?

Neuheisel's crooning and guitar playing is pretty legendary in coaching circles too. After he was hired at Colorado, he convinced Joe Paterno to come on stage with him at a Nike coaches' retreat and sing 'Wild Thing.' Man, if only YouTube existed then. At least we have Rick's riff on Marty Robbins' classic to entertain us now.
