Does Arch Manning sit for another year?

I thought it was a given that Ewers was coming back for a while now? Weird. Well I guess it's official, again.

Doesn't Manning make like 3 million a year in NIL money? Highest paid backup in CFB. Maybe @LonghornInOmaha knows what he's going to do?

If the roster looks right, I'd stay put. The present roster made the playoffs. The probability of making the playoffs for TX is higher than most other teams in CFB.

Of course he does. He'll get more reps next year and Quinn's yet to play a full season uninjured.

If Arch is so good and makes mega millions, why doesn't he just beat out Ewers and take the QB1 job?

He does if he’s smart. Don’t let your pride get in the way, you should be the heir apparent in 2025 and plenty prepared to take the reins

Rumor is that he has a good arm from an accuracy, standpoint, but not exceptionally strong. Not sure how much improvement can be made in that area.

Ewers can move up in the draft next year. This year’s class is really strong. He would not be a first rounder.

A lot of people said the same thing about his uncle Peyton.

Yep. His arm is plenty strong. I believe he'll be better than Quinn in a couple of years, but he's not there yet. I do like Arch's athletic ability, too. He won't have designed run plays, but he'll extend drives by running when warranted.

Not until he went to the Broncos with a broken neck

They used to say if you're not going in the first round, you better stay in school. Then the last six years or so, players were either stupid or they were just fine with getting drafted at all. Leave school early, sit out of a bowl game, then get drafted in the 6th round. But now, there's the six and seven figure NIL deals! So that has suddenly led to more players staying in school. Who could have seen that coming??

Unless the NIL money goes away because he is the backup, where was his NIL money put him in the NFL as a backup QB?

Me I’d stay keep working and learning especially if the NIL stays in place.

Hes not as good as ewers, and wont be.
Milk that nil.

Think I saw that he makes more per year as Texas’ backup than Purdy makes as the starter at San Francisco. If that tells you anything.

Niners are so tapped out. If they don’t win it this year, they are sunk. That roster is expensive
