hey no question the QB recruiting has gotten a lot better. 2024, 2025, and 2026 all landed top 100 players overall in the nation at QB. And you just need one of them to hit and you're set. Which is why you should be landing top flight QB's EVERY class. Like...Texas or Alabama or Ohio State does. Just get a 5* or top 100 overall kid every single class and eventually one of them will hit.

But that doesn't help THIS SEASON. How did they not land anyone in 2022 or 2023 or hit the portal in the off-season to bring in a Cam Ward is beyond me. Bad decision/planning/roster management by the coaches.
That is criminal.

just rewatched every Davis Warren throw on YouTube. It's even worse than I remember. His very first throw he has a clean pocket and could've stepped up into his throw and hit Colston Loveland for a 1st down on 3rd and 7. Instead? He throws off his back foot for zero reason- no pressure no one in his face- had a clean pocket to climb up in and step into his throw- doesn't- throws it off the back foot and overthrows and sails a football 10 yards over an open Colston Loveland's head.

Obviously, loading up on 5 star QBs results in some of them portaling out, which can be OK.  A freshman will sit, usually, but then he wants to start or leave.  I'm a bit surprised the UGA QB2 and QB3 have stuck as long as they have, though one did finally leave for Kentucky (and may be regretting the choice).  

You might snag two elite QBs in a year and really only have one, or even none.

If he threw it 10 yards over a receiver's head, he at least has a strong arm ...  and literally is their QB.

Kinda surprised Manning hasn't left Texas for Ole Miss yet.

I guess I could be the guy in Austin next season?

What say you, @longhorn320 and @utee94 ?

Arch Manning has a very smart, savvy, professional team of handlers- his extended family and their agents.  They know the business of QBing better than any other group on the planet.

They absolutely did NOT want him to skip a redshirt year, and they're fine with him sitting this year as well. They specifically chose Sarkisian due to his history of developing QBs, plus the QB-friendly offense that he runs.  Unless there's some other top-notch QB whisperer coach out there that's better, the Mannings don't have any interest in changing schools.

Ewers will go in the draft this year and Arch will take over next year.  What's more, the Mannings have a floor number of college starts they want Arch to have before entering the NFL, based on their history and expertise in this area.  That number is 25, so not only will Arch be the starter at Texas in 2025, he'll also be the starter at Texas in 2026.

After the game was over and the stadium was cleared, the Michigan marching band honored their guests  by forming a Longhorn logo on the field.  It's close, anyway.  They forgot poor Bevo's ears.

Lmao you people are ridiculous.

the game is won in the trenches. Texas dominated the line of scrimmage on both sides. Especially with their ELITE OL. And they have a LEGIT QB that will be drafted and play in the NFL. Michigan’s QB will be selling insurance this time next year. that’s the difference.

Jeem was ALWAYS going to leave. He’s an NFL coach. He’s proven he can do it. Most college coaches can’t. His dream is to win a Super Bowl, not a Natty. And he’s been open about that since oh idk forever.
