Arch Manning did something that is so rare, especially for quarterbacks in today’s college football.

He waited.

The No. 1 player in the 2023 Rivals250 went to Texas over Alabama and Georgia with the intention of sitting one year behind Quinn Ewers.

When Ewers returned for the 2024 season, Manning could have bolted and no one outside of Austin would have blamed him. An elite quarterback like that almost never sits for two years in today’s landscape.

But Manning has done everything his way through his recruitment and since he got to Texas.
