Archibald Charles Manning: most hyped recruit ever at QB? - StickierBuns - 07-16-2025

Going to be interesting to watch it unfold, will he live up to the hype? Good kid. Big, athletic guy....more athletic than Peyton and Eli. Some fans don't realize that Cooper, his Dad and brother of Peyton and Eli, was a big time recruit at WRer but his spinal issues nipped his college career. University of Texas fans have HUGE expectations.
Weird thing: he's only 9 months younger than JJ McCarthy.

We'll see what he's got soon enough. The Longhorns first game is at defending national champion Ohio State.

Yes sir, looking forward to that one. Just like a certain JJM on the road on MNF in Chicago.

I think he's going to be really good. I'd be surprised if he declares after this season though. I think he sticks in college for at least two more years with NIL and putting enough tape out there for NFL evaluators.

I do as well. There will be some 'Planning for Manning' tanking going on for some teams the year he declares.

Many questions and things yet to be learned about Arch, I get it.
But the the New Orleans Saints are tanking this season in an attempt to get him.

I hope they tank hard and then he doesn't declare.

The Mannings like their kids to graduate.
If the Saints tank and get the first pick, that might change things up.

Interesting question posed by the OP. Is Arch Manning the most hyped QB ever? It's hard to argue he's not. Because of his name, people have been following him since high school. The only other QBs I remember who might have had similar hype were his Uncle Peyton and Andrew Luck. To a lesser degree, Trevor Lawrence, maybe Heath Shuler. Caleb Williams is up there too. Who remembers the big Winston vs. Mariota debates? Neither side was right. And in looking over ALL the other busts (Mirer, Leaf, Leinart, Sanchez, Trubisky, Wentz, etc) makes me want to slow the roll a bit on our guy...for now...

The question is: when is the last time a QB named Manning didn't work out? We know the answer to that one. Pretty crazy, but the odds are VERY GOOD that Arch will as well....will be fun to watch. Easy kid to root for, hard worker.
