Texas Longhorns fans have been eagerly awaiting the debut of quarterback Arch Manning, and early reports from spring practice indicate that he is living up to the hype. As the grandson of Archie Manning and nephew of Peyton and Eli Manning, expectations for Arch have been sky-high since his high school days. Under head coach Steve Sarkisian, Manning has been adjusting to the college game, learning the intricacies of Texas’ offense while competing with Quinn Ewers and Maalik Murphy for reps. During the first practice, Manning displayed excellent pocket presence, strong mechanics, and an advanced football IQ. Sarkisian praised his work ethic and ability to quickly absorb the playbook. While Ewers remains the projected starter, Manning’s presence adds an intriguing element to the Longhorns’ quarterback room. With Texas set to join the SEC in 2025, the development of Manning is crucial for the program’s long-term success. Fans are already speculating about when he might take over as the starter, but for now, he’s focused on growth and improvement. If Manning continues to progress at this pace, he could be the face of Texas football for years to come, bringing the Longhorns back to national prominence.
