Arch is MUCH better with his legs than his two uncles were. He might not be 4.63 fast, but he moves really well and will probably get a little faster as he gets older.

Yep and his mom was the NOLA Metro Track MVP in high school. He isn't just a pocket QB.

Arch is going to go where HE wants. The family has said this many times.

Archie was Fran Tarkenton on a much worse team.

He is talking about Cooper, but your statement is correct. Arch looks A LOT like his grandfather on the field.

If Walker Howard is as good as advertised it won’t matter though



Bama, Clemson, Georgia and Ol Piss have no QB's?

You’re right Walker is the REAL DEAL and downvote away, because of all the record downvotes I keep receiving every time this subject comes up I say again “ Arch ain’t coming to LSU to play football “ vote accordingly

I asked all three point-blank in high school w Archie in the room, they all laughed when I said what about LSU? Cooper, Payton, and Eli were all there plus Archie. We also had Curly as a coach at the time. The Mannings have a good relationship w Ed O but I'm not holding my breath.

The Manning's do not hate LSU. Peyton and Eli both were seriously considering coming to LSU but Josh Booty blocked both of them from coming to LSU. Josh was rated ahead of Peyton and then he signed to play baseball but it was too late for Peyton to flip. Then Josh left baseball to come back to LSU to play football when LSU was recruiting Eli. So Eli decided to go to Ole Miss because of the relationship the family had with Cutcliff who coached Peyton at Tennessee. That is why they didn't come here not because they hated LSU. If Arch does not come to LSU it will be because he doesn't want to compete with Walker Howard.

Archie, like any good parent, is going t0 give well thought out advice.
When Peyton was a Sr, Archie went to Hallman and asked which of the two, Manning or Booty, he was going to emphasize in recruiting. In typical Hallman decision making, Hallman said Booty.
So Peyton selected Tennessee.

I'd probably go to Oklahoma if I was Arch.

For the love of God, can people stop turning everyone of the threads on this kid into some variation of "A Manning will never come here!". You're not original, the point has been made before, and it adds nothing.

^This

Honestly doesn’t concern me in the least unless he goes to Bama. Would prefer him to go OOC as I understand Texas is in the mix which is ok with me. I’m a huge fan of Walker Howard.
