Plus: Texas softball versus Clemson tonight
Everyone has something to say about Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning.
For good reason, too. The latest heir to the Manning football dynasty is very good at it.
The Athletic is the latest outlet to throw their hat into the Arch hot take ring.
“His size, arm talent and movement skills are all ideal,” Nick Baumgardner writes in The Athletic. “More importantly, so is his process—Manning’s footwork is consistent, incredibly calm and almost always in rhythm with the pass concept he’s working.”
“An excellent processor for his age, Manning shows poise against pressure and already has put several examples on film of being able to move beyond a second (or even third) read from the pocket,” Baumgardner continued. “He’s athletic enough to be a factor as a scrambler and passer on the run, but his natural calm in the pocket will be what separates him long term.”
