Like Peyton late in his career, he will be able to win games with his mind even if his physical talent doesn't quite live up to ridiculous expectations. I wonder if he’s had any “mental game” tutoring from anyone over the last few years?

If that dumbass looked at his talent, the QBs on site in College Station, the offensive system, the history of young WRs in that offensive system, the history of WRs in general in that offensive system, how WRs have done under Jimbo during his time in College Station and still decided that THAT was his best option to get him ready for the NFL he really is dumb as fuck. No, really. Imagine being that good and picking the Jimbo Fisher offense and QB room of Haynes King, Max Johnson and true freshman Conner Weigman over any other program in the country. ...but we all know he didn't end up in College Station because of anything having to do with football.

There is only so much you can get into with a 14 or 15 year old kid when it comes to the nuances of playing QB. When you get to a college offense, that separation starts to happen.

June 23, 20223 yr Nahlin: A team that goes 5-7 has no business landing the the nation‘s No 1 prospect, let alone the latest model from the Manning family quarterback assembly line, right? I forgive anyone who thought Inside Texas was off its rocker for covering this recruitment so earnestly, but anyone who read this site understood this development was possible for myriad, complementary reasons. It starts with the Mannings and their general fondness for the school. We knew Cooper Manning almost went to UT, and then more famously Eli Manning nearly did as well. But what really caught our attention was when we learned how close Cooper and Ellen Manning were to sending their daughter May to UT. Okay, so now we know the family’s fondness extended into the younger generation. Interesting. I would go on to find out how well Cooper fit in with a subset of Texas-ex businessmen, mostly living in Dallas. I knew he had friends all over — and would later learn that extended to Georgia alums — but these were relationships that went well beyond business. That’s all fine and well, but Cooper went to Ole Miss like his father and brother and surely his son will do the same. That’s not what the early information led us to believe. Early on it wasn’t so cut and dried Ole Miss wouldn’t be a factor, but it was clear long before Arch would pick his school. So maybe there’s a chance, but the Mannings aren’t going to let Tom Herman turn Arch into a Zamboni like they did Sam Ehlinger, so the story was on hold. When Steve Sarkisian replaced Tom Herman, the story came out of the deep freeze to thaw. Almost immediately after Sark was hired I had people calling me to say how big this could be for Arch. Arch? At the time I was focused on Quinn Ewers but the details were interesting. IT learned the Mannings viewed Sark as a top-five offensive mind in college football and it was pretty clear Arch wouldn’t be playing for any of the other four. We put that story on the small burner to simmer until Quinn Ewers picked Ohio State when we turned up the heat. Arch visited Texas in the summer of 2021. He was off a recent Clemson visit that produced a ton of buzz, but the end result was they really liked Dabo Swinney and the school setting, but the offense made it a no-go. Meanwhile the Texas visit went very well and Sarkisian was already pulling consensus building levers between Arch and a handful of top prospects. As summer ended Clemson was mostly out, if not entirely. Ole Miss was already out. LSU was a non-factor. As Arch began his junior year, this race narrowed down to Texas, Georgia, and Alabama, even if many didn’t realize it. That brings us to that 5-7 record. No matter how much the Mannings liked Sark, relationships wouldn’t be enough to seal it, right? No, that wasn’t enough, but Texas had so many other factors going for it. Here are just a few: — The staff Sark assembled was very well suited to work as a team and win this recruitment. Along with Sark’s reputation for offense and quarterback development, AJ Milwee’s demeanor and personality was seen as a perfect fit for Arch (and the coaches at Isidore Newman, who he struck deep bonds with). On top of that, Terry Joseph played a key introductory role and always had his ear to the street. You have to approach recruitments in a way that is custom fit to the recruit’s personality and Texas, with the help of Joseph, did just that. Also assisting was Kyle Flood. He took a more prominent role in the recruitment after his fantastic offensive line haul, which itself was a key factor. — Texas had campus life in its favor. Arch doesn’t want the attention that comes with playing the quarterback position at a major school. Factor in his last name and it’s even more difficult to blend in. The bigger environment of Austin, which reminded him of New Orleans, benefitted the school. — To say nothing negative of Georgia, Academics benefitted the school as well. It was refreshing to hear how much education mattered. They were taking nothing for granted with Arch and the NFL. Perhaps Cooper’s own injury history and success in the real world gave him such good perspective. — While Cooper had so many good relationships with Texas-exes, Arch has a number of strong relationships with current Texas students. Every time he visited we heard how comfortable he was on campus — and also how normal he was. — Quinn Ewers’ reclassification was big. It’s freaking unreal Texas will have both on the roster. That would not have happened without Ewers reclassifying. Sark played that well, by the way. He was honest and up front with the Mannings about the pursuit of Ewers, but made it clear Quinn wasn’t going to be on campus all that long. If you felt Occam’s razor was ‘Georgia good, Texas bad’ you were going to be wrong from the start. It could have just as easily been comparing Kirby Smart’s quarterback track record compared to Steve Sarkisian’s. In the end the Mannings made a holistic decision, and the school was set up well to win because of a perfect storm of factors.

One day Texas was recruiting MHP as a Safety, the next he said he was WR, and the recruitment changed. I assume he likes him at WR, but clearly the staff liked him more at safety. That may still be in the back of their minds.

June 23, 20223 yr Cook and Pettaway Not sure how we could lose Pettaway, a pefect Sark fit, to some rookie head coach with a defensive background. He likes being able to see 15 miles in every direction from a 3 story building.

Pettaway may be looking at it from a touch perspective rather than coach. Unfortunate but understandable in a sense that the WR room here is continuing to get stock piled with elite talent where as OU is damn near bare. Bit of a role reversal from the past 10 years

News at 11: WR are head cases and OL like to eat dessert. It could be anyone. Wilson and/or Pilot may turn out to be great WRs. You dont need to be Megatron to be a damn good player. I just tend to play the odds. Not sure either has any elite physical trait, so I am just playing the odds. Just wondering if the staff should sit down with Arch and see if he he maybe able to open some doors.
