Dan Patrick: Arch Manning Is The "Anomaly" By Staying At Texas | 7/18/24

spent a little bit of time talking about SEC media days Texas and Alabama got the stage and I like that Nick Saban put even more pressure on his successor by saying I got Texas in Georgia playing for the SEC title and you start to look at you know kids nowadays parents nowadays wanting their son to be able to play right away and if you don't play right away then you transfer what's my nil and if I don't play right away then I'm going to get in the transfer for portal that's what happens and then you have Arch Manning Arch Manning highly recruited ends up going to Texas and then he sits first year and he's going to sit this year as well behind Quinn yers who will be a Heisman Trophy candidate best case scenario if you're Texas is Arch Manning doesn't play this year because that means Quinn ERS has played lights out now maybe some mop-up time mop-up Duty we saw that last year with Arch but it is surprising in today's day and age of I want it now I don't get it now I'm going to transfer where I can find a place where I can get it now I want to start right now now I know that you know having famous uncles there and you know famous grandfather there that okay maybe you don't have to speed up the process here maybe you wait you get your chance spend a couple of years at Texas and then maybe you get a chance in the NFL but but he is the anomaly they're most of these quarterbacks aren't waiting especially somebody was highly recruited as Arch Manning and he's admitted you know it's pretty frustrating but you can't argue with what Quinn yers has done he was going he went to Ohio State so Quinn yers was even more highly regarded than Arch Manning was coming out of high school if you can believe that went to Ohio State went there early and uh I think he was getting nil money one of the first guys getting nil money and then eventually transferred to Texas and he's played pretty well the last couple of Seasons but I I was surprised that uh and I don't think the SEC media days Arch Manning is going to usually your backup quarterback doesn't speak but I I would be more fascinated to talk to him than I would Quinn ERS even though Quinn Y is highly regarded and probably going to be a first round draft pick but uh Heisman Trophy Cate for Texas
