    A special fuck you to the bitch ass pussies that have infected this thread for the last week. Maybe the most pathetic display from Texas fans regarding one of our players that I've ever seen.  Ar

That could be it lol. I barely even pulled a D in that class, too.

Fuck that auditorium class, esp at 8/9 in the morning

It will be interesting what happens if Arch does start the next 2 games. 

ULM and Miss State (gave up 30 and 41 in the last 2 weeks against unranked teams). Arch is probably going to put up video game numbers against both those teams if he starts. 

Can you bench Arch if he's putting up video game numbers in 3 straight weeks?

Oh, for fuck's sake. Quinn is not getting demoted. Quit asking stupid questions.

I think it's unlikely but you're kidding yourself if isn't a thought assuming Arch goes off in these next 2 games. 

At some point, you have to ride a guy that's putting up the type numbers he is. 14/18, 6 touchdowns, no turnovers, and over 300 yards passing with limited passing attempts is insane even given the competition. 

If he's putting up similar numbers in the next 2 weeks, I don't think it's nearly as clear cut as you think it is. 

 

It took me awhile to come up with the closest nfl comparable to Arch. Probably Archie Manning. Maybe Johnny Unitas.

The way Arch handled that interview it was like listening to a 15 year Pro NFL QB.  He gave all the right answers about coaches, teammates, preparation.  He sounded like Brady answering a question which is impressive for a college kid who just played his first meaningful game.

Yep, VY, Ewers and Arch the only three. Trevor Lawrence was .9999

Arch finished as a .9995, not a 1.0000.

ESPN had him ranked as the #3 QB…

A thought for whom? The coach who’s been starting Ewers and deals with the two every day? Or randos on the Internet? Because randos on the internet have the thought that the earth is flat.

I get that, but there is no position group where chemistry is more important. Seems like plug-and-play is a little dicier here.

I agree with you but based on our schedule, the backups should get a ton of time this year.   Rotation should be on the coaches minds when games like yesterday happen.  

Really good OL haven’t moved around much in the portal so far.  It’s probably the toughest position group to bring in.  I don’t know if we will need it though.  Flood is supposed to really like the backups he has.

Nothing is more indicative of where Sark has taken the program than thinking how excited we were that Squints was being replaced by Colt’s brother.

Sadly, that was a significant upgrade.

Well Mack Brown had him rated as the number one safety so that should count for something.

You have ZERO understanding of how an OL works. 

 

imo, those days are gone. it’s a year to roster now. curious if ut has staff dedicated to scouting  potential transfer targets 

but yes, the OL is heart beat of the team

You may want to check in on how that’s going for Florida State

that’s why you need gold staff scouting potential targets 

horrible qb choice over there. i think things will swing back to kids wanting to stay in one place but some kids will easily be $$$ motivated 

One (maybe two) transfer OL can work fine (see Calvin Anderson). But the only reason to go that route is if the staff is intent on having some experience. Because we certainly don't lack bodies.

I can’t believe I’m responding to this….

by all accounts Quinn is the unquestioned leader on this team and you don’t bench that guy after an injury (read: not poor performance) regardless of what his backup does in his place. The chemistry/locker room issues alone it would cause make it a non-starter.

 

Now if this is a month-long injury and arch puts up those kind of near perfect numbers in Dallas and against the UGA D…. it’s still a “no” but I will allow there will be some discussion.

If we are glancing forward to next year, my only question is the OL Arch will have in front of him. We are going to say goodbye to a ton of experience up front after this year.

The only thing that will be lacking is the experience. And I don’t see that as a reason we should look to the portal. The 9.95 reports and those in the know on here have stated that the coaches love what they have for the future. I think I slight bump in the road would be if Williams decides to leave after this year.

Arch Manning 5 TOTAL TDs in Texas’ blowout win vs. UTSA | ESPN College Football

The obvious is obvious, but the big takeaway from Manning's performance is in the details.  Details that have nothing to do with whether or not he was playing against UTSA or BAMA/UGA.

The quick release on the Golden slant was unreal.  You see it again when it really mattered - on the long TD to Wingo.  Watch that play again.  Without that insanely quick release, Manning never gets that throw away or it's a floating duck that gets picked off.  He was hit by the D-line and barely got it off as it was.

Those little details are what makes him good and will make him great.  Add in reading coverage/defenses and making good decision...from great to elite.

And Hill says he's faster than Noah Lyles, so by the transitive property, Arch is an Olympic gold medalist sprinter.

Stop it, there is zero tape on Manning UTSA was coverning him incorrectly plus all those busted coverages lead to video game numbers, As long as he is healthy Quinn is still the best QB in the roster and country.

Nothing is more indicative of where Sark has taken the program than thinking how excited we were that Squints was being replaced by Colt’s brother. 

I was thinking about that last night. Ten years ago, our QB room was Jerrod Heard and Tyrone Swoopes. Today, it’s Quinn Ewers and Arch Manning.

the drive to start the 4th with the off balance throw to wingo and the subsequent TD pass was pretty special.

the throw to Wingo especially, is one that gets picked a lot.  It was UTSA but still very nice to see the execution.

Wingo is great at keeping his body between the defender and the ball.  Huge skill to do well and he does it as a pup.  Had a curl game 1 that he did the same.

It was fucking UTSA. They are terrible. His struggles in the 2nd quarter should be more than enough for you know that when we are playing a team with a pulse, we want Ewers back there. Arch is going to be good. But let's not judge his potential off the same quality of team that had people clamoring for Henry Melton to running back.

I think you mean Henry Shelton

Assuming he plays next week, I’d guess ulm will make him think fast by blitzing. He can obviously make throws and our wrs can get open.  So trying to disguise coverages and blitz to speed him up.  
 

Will be a great experience for him, hopefully there’s no real danger for the team. 
 

utsa, ulm, and msu are a great trio of teams to get your first action against. 

It won't happen because Sark isn't that kind of coach. No matter how great he is in the next 2 games.

No clue. Hopefully nowhere.
