Arch Manning names his favorite college town

[Saltydog]

And REM basically runs the town politics.

Enough said......They stink anyway but the B-52's are far worse........

As far as a "Brand" Texas is the biggest, plus being a big fish in Texas tops being a big fish in AL or GA and it is fairly close to NOLA (7 hours, but Tuscaloosa is about 5).

If on field success is his overall goal, the choice is simple, Bama, but to promote his overall brand Texas is probably best, but there is a risk as on field success at Texas is a wildcard.

You think Saban coaches for another 4 years??? That puts him at 74. He could definitely coach into his late 70s, but at some point do you want to be there as a top recruit when he does depart?

Or would you rather play for UGA where the coach is much younger (thus no chance of retirement) and talent level is equal?

[BrunswickDawg]

Well here is both.

BTW she was 45 when this video was made.

Yep - she is 74 now.

I fully expect him to coach another 4 years, he's in great shape and I think football is his life.

Saban is like The Bear he will coach up to the end.

He is going to get his ass beat a lot if he goes to Texas. They won’t be playing a big 12 Schedule that they currently can’t break .500 on during Manning’s career. They have a recovering alcoholic as their head coach. They just seem like a really big smoke screen in that recruitment IMO.

He'll have 2 years to pad stats before they move to the SEC tho, right?

I mean yea if he doesn’t redshirt. Texas signs an elite quarterback every year though. I don’t expect that kid to be starting day 1 at any blue blood, but maybe he will. His uncle had to wait for an injury in 94 to start. I got to see him get his ass whooped in Starkville by Derrick Taite which was awesome. That was before Eric Moulds cucked him and Taite wouldn’t throw him the damn ball.

He is a high 3 star maybe low 4 star if he had a different last name

That's what I've been wondering... is it the Manning name or is he really that good as a sophomore and junior. Can't argue that the Genes are there but was Peyton and Eli recruited this hard when they were that young?

Peyton was as a junior, or at least he was covered by Mississippi news outlets like he was.
The day he committed to Tennessee I swear you could hear the cries of grief from Oxford all the way to Starkville.

I'm sure you'll hear a lot more of this around Mississippi now. When old miss fans thought they had a chance, all I heard from them was how great the kid was.
Peyton wasn't the best but he put in the time. Does this kid have that discipline? I'm sure he has a good football iq and form?
Is he gifted, no clue?

Athens is Austin before Austin went weird/

Never forget my first road trip from Fort Worth to Austin. Beautiful Hill Country that reminded me of SO-CAL but not a lot folks with any common sense.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

The only reason I'm interested is to witness another Suicide Watch / Melt amongst the Slave Owners. Was living in Memphis when Peyton went to UT and it was orgasmic even though I hate UT too. I actually hate everybody except STATE to different degrees but X 10M for Slavery U.

Remember going to Austin back in 75. Then it was alot smaller. The Salt Lick was way out in the country and yes the town was full of long hairs.
