Stephen A. reacts to Arch Manning committing to Texas | First Take 

I couldn't even imagine being able to pick Peyton and Eli's brain WHENEVER you wanted to further your football game

The Manning family is the first family of Football no doubt.

Arch going to Texas bc of Coach Sark. Pro style offense and if he stays he will play in the SEC his Jr year. I wish the kid well

Imagine being 17 and Stephen A talking about you on tv, that’s a lot of pressure

I met Archie Payton and Eli when Eli was in high school in Savanah GA at a seafood place. They spoke and conversed with my father in I as if the knew us. Great family. Archie swag is on 100. No shock his offspring are great.

This is something to be happy and for the whole family to just smile idk if Texas football will be back on top or anything like tht but u can definitely be sure he’ll make the team better somehow someway

Kid is going to be an all time great in the NFL. Can’t wait to watch him grow. The Mannings are NFL royalty.

Brady vs Arch Manning may actually happen because Tom don’t wanna ever retire 😂

Excited for Texas football. We’ve been missing a stud qb since colt McCoy. We have all the offensive weapons. Add a few more defensive keys and we have hope. I’m excited to see these next couple of years. I wish this year was next year though. Lol I’m tired of losing.

I hope he does well a lot of haters are creeping out on him now

The Texas Longhorns need to get a defense if Arch Manning is going to go to the playoffs. Especially when Texas moves to the SEC.

Longhorns were the team to watch in the 2000’s hopefully Arch can bring redemption show the sec how it’s done

I'm not surprised by this! The reason why is because everybody don't have to come to Alabama and Georgia! Everybody has they own decisions to make and Arch Manning made a phenomenal decision to go to Texas because Texas haven't won a national championship since Vince Young era so good decision young man! I'm forever a Alabama fan Roll Tide Roll!

Her face when Stephen A said VY won a national championship over "UFC" was classic!!!!

RD makes a great point…. I think Arch Manning made this move knowing that he Will be playing in the SEC at some point and he knows he will be playing against the best in Year 3 At the least

It’s been so long seeing a college player get so hyped up since before even taking a snap. Last one was Tebow. Archie is going to kill it🔥🔥🔥🔥

That NIL deal is crazy. I know he’s going there bc of Sark and him being offensive coordinator for Tua and Mac along with Mike locksley + Bryan Daboll

To the ones who likes these kinds of post this is for you. I Hope your day, week, even year is a blessed one. Life is to short to hate and be mad at anything. Start reaching out to loved one more because you never know when it’s our last day here. Whatever it is in life you want to do go after it don’t let anyone tell you other wise. Keep on fighting, pushing, and grinding through whatever you are going through hope all is well peace and one love!🙏🏽

The possibility of Texas going to SEC I did forget about, but still even if that's the case your still talking about a program that has a very high name pedigree despite the failures since Vince Young. Even if it's for a year or 2, if Arch can turn something that's been on the down into a playoff team, I think that will look even greater on him than if he went to Alabama or Georgia because when Arch gets drafted it will most likely be to a shitty team and have some experience in rebuilding a program/team will come in very handy for him

They are A Class act!

Lol, I like Molly's reaction when Stephen A said.. molly, before you.... she looked annoyed AF

Texas' biggest issue is recruiting. Being out recruited by A&M and Baylor is unacceptable for such a marquee program.

New York Longhorns fan here. I’m so happy and excited for the future of this program.

As a austinite I will be buying my Longhorns Manning jersey asap

This kid will have a better NFL Career in the @Mannings just watch he's soaked up every Manning ✊🏽🏈⚜️💯

None of these dudes follow recruiting. Arch has been a Texas lean for a while with Georgia a close second.

Hope you win a Heisman, win multiple super bowls and go to the hall of fame like Eli and Peyton

The Air Raid is being shown off in conferences outside SEC right now

Steven A, you are as classy an act as the Mannings, in my opinion. I am wondering what you are thinking about a Manning going to Texas?

every team is gonna tank for this guy might be the best prospect since Andrew luck.

Arch manning is the only prospect whose poor level of competition and lack of participation in 7 on7 and camps is not held against. Makes no sense should not be #1 qb if held to the same standard as other guys in the past

Tbh why would he go to Georgia with how Kirby handles qbs

It's crazy that no one in that family gives a strong consideration to LSU. I'm from the N.O.

Are people forgetting about Quin Ewers here?

So Quinn Ewers vs Arch Manning both 1.000 composite ratings (only 3 ever with Vince Young ) and I bet one of them will transfer unless Ewers has an insane season declares for the draft and Arch redshirts , idk what that end plan is

Beyond excited about another Manning in football… good luck Arch!!

I Haven’t bother about Texas since Vince Young!!!!

I pray for this kid with pressure y’all putting on him

Oooh a manning 👀 I was unawares lol

He will have to get used to the speed in collage. Remember he plays in a 2A small prep school. The team was blown out in three games this year. He should be great but give him time. SEC in 2023 also.

Stephen A don’t know nothing, thinking he was fixing to have a hot take calling out the SEC, forgetting that Texas and OU are fixing to join 🤣🤣🤣

As a Bulldog fan for several decades, it's kind of bittersweet. Believe me when I say that no one at Georgia felt that Arch would just swoon over the 5 star facilities, city of Athens incredible reputation and probably the second best coach in America. I believe he understood our QB room is too stacked to have to deal with. Besides Stetson this year, no one in Georgia knows what Kirby will do in the future with the upcoming studs in the stable. If Arch pondered that he's right up there with the rest of Bulldog fans. It's a good problem to have, but I think it swayed his decision. He may have beaten out the other 5 stars, but maybe wanted a clean start. Just my thoughts. I really like the kid and the entire Manning family and wish them well. Until he plays Georgia😁😁

Coach sark come to longhorns and was not aware of the longhorns going to sec

"Georgia turned the tide" I see what you did there lol

Davis sounded arrogant as If he knew exactly what Arch was thinking. It’s not a coincidence Archie Eli and sister nearly all went to TX. Yes Sark was the #1 reason but UTATX is not just any regular college town and University.

If coach Sark was still at AL Arch would be at AL. Arch Manning will take TX into the SEC

Fur like ten years they 5 or 8 great college QBs leave the state or go to instate teams.

Hopefully the Giants get lucky and draft another Manning 🙏

Reminds me of a Joe Burrow... Arm and Foot movement

Great move to go to Texas to establish his own identity ...

Arch finna own his Texas trip. Homey is going to BE the longhorns.

What about the Quarter back kid out of Long Beach Poly??

Well, I guess the manning family isn't going away from football anytime soon.

Arch is gonna make bank with how college players can make money now.

Does this mean he's not going to play this season in 2022 but he will play in 2023 right but the Longhorns still got a former number 1 recruit who started his career off at Ohio state last season and reclassified and then transferred to Texas Quinn ewers

As a Texas fan This has me over the roof but We have to have a good season this year, I don’t want another ewers situation

Bjon and arch will be insane if bjon stay next hear

This man called Austin, Tx a Town. 🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣 Steppin fetch A. is hilarious in his carrying on..." we sick boss!?" let it been a story of the Ball family, or kyrie and his pops..he would be MEAN! NO matter the story...SMH..

Least 2SB rings for the lad, Manning heritage

We will see if he wins a SEC Championship

This young man is going to be a baller.. as a high school student is showing all the credentials for a rising start threw the ranks. I'm sure he will bring that fight, that dog in Texas again 🐂🤘

🤘 Let’s Go!

What are his weaknesses? What are the things he has to improve on? No reporters are asking these questions. How’s he supposed to improve if all the reporters are acting as if he has nothing to improve on.

Texas will move to the SEC a year early is my prediction

The Mannings are like the Kennedys of NFL lol

As much as I want Quinn Ewers to flourish, I know Arch will be the starter by the time football season rolls around once he hits campus. Not only is that the load he’s carrying with him as a Manning, but this is also an opportunity for him to change the course at a powerhouse program. I know he’s going to take it and run with it.

Huge fan base will help his NIL deals, that's why he choose the Longhorns.. . Flat out!

Other than Arch's pedigree explain to me he is a 5* and #1 overall player in the country? I saw a film of his team playing Graham H.S. last year. This is 3-A Louisiana football. He was 16 of 28 for 134 yards. 1TD / 1Int. He had 21 rushing yards. They lost by 12. I'm sorry but If he was at least passing for 70% and was playing at the same level of computation as say Malachi Nelson or Jackson Arnold maybe he would be that high. I do not have anything against the kid but I need to see something better from him Not reruns of his uncles.

Yea word is bond when Eli ditched san diego lol

Arch can change his mind

First class? They threatened to not play for the chargers 😂

he look like joe burrow in the photo

He’s gonna be great no matter where he goes

Longhorns getting their best QB since Colt Mccoy!

Sark may be a great coach to develop him but don’t expect a great team at Texas. They have a long way to go to compete in the SEC.

HOOK 'EM HORNS 🤘

WOW...ANOTHER MANNING.....GOOD FOR NFL....

Maybe he feels that the only way to out do his family is to single handedly turn texas around and then go pro

Kid is the real deal

Georgia would've been ridiculous next season if he chose them.

Ignore all the bs Arch you made a great choice even without football. Hook 'em Horns.

Brady vs manning Lmfaoooo

I thought he was a lock for Alabama.

Get your rookie cards now folks

Can't wait to see him play for the horns ...

Hook’em 🐂

am i the only one hearing this name for the first time?

What is going to happen to Quinn Ewers?

I hate when he talks on college sports, dude is so casual w it

His family is worth north of $500 mio. He isn’t planning his career to maximise $$$ the way moats do, and very understandably. He will do 4 years of college. He will be very picky in his draft year as to who he will play for. He will make 100s of millions in his career but his objective will be to maximise the football over the $$$. He can change Texas recruiting, he can be seen as the catalyst for resurrecting their program.

There saying the best manning come out the family

She be looking stunning tho 😍

Peyton was first class when he teabagged a trainer as a prank at Tennessee?

I’m an Aggie so I hate this decision but I wish nothing but the best for Arch! Mannings are one of the classiest families on earth

Texas football is avg at best, it hasn't had a title contending team since 2006.

He will be the best Manning QB book it!

To Texas and then the saints

The question is. When will he start at Texas?

Why would he pick Georgia? That's the worst place to go for Elite QBs and WRs. Yes the team is great overall, but Kirby's offense is not QB or WR friendly and your stats will be average at best. If you're an elite RB then yes, Georgia makes sense.
