Prob best to avoid criticizing in case we’re his second or third school in the next couple of years. 🤷‍♂️

Glad my Tide didn't get this one. Personally think Arch is overrated and not worth the circus that comes with his commitment.

Decent athlete, decent arm.

He's considered an elite, program-changer based on his bloodline.

His bloodline doesn't automatically make him mentally elite like his uncles. He has to develop that as he gets further into more-complex playbooks.

We'll see!

Was throwing off of his back foot a lot, and not always under pressure. He needs plenty of time and seasoning still.

When people say money isn’t a factor ha. His family has more money than what they know to do with it. The end of good college football is coming.

Well his uncles do. I'm not sure about Archie or Cooper. Archie played when salaries weren't great. Cooper is a PR guy for an investment company.

I stand by my opinion that Arch Manning is the most overrated player I have ever seen on film. He has the film of a low 4-star QB prospect. Everyone assumes -- possibly correctly -- that because of his pedigree that his intangibles will outweigh his measurables. They assume that he will be crazy accurate, get the ball out quickly, be able to read defenses, and do everything else a top QB is supposed to do. Which, again, might be true... but he doesn't show anything special on film. He looks good, not like a "generational" talent like some laud him to be.
Aged like a fine wine.
