I wasn’t going to say a thing about it until you brought this up. With a nod to a previous post (sorry forgot who said it) as well as the above, Ewers has a very high ceiling. I think that coaching will be required to reach what he’s capable of putting on the field. I don’t know that Tejas has that caliber of coaching. Either way, without good coaching for him, he either becomes a very serviceable college QB who did not live up to his HS rep or he goes the way of Tate. Sad thing is, were Ewers to follow the Tate route, he’s at Houston or maybe TCU after the next transfer when he washes out. I do not hope that for him, in the least… but I do think the odds of that significantly increased with a move to Tejas.

Following that… if the QB coaching doesn’t perform, what comes of Arch? I also agree that he (my words) likely got a star bump due to his name. Without coaching that can extract the potential from a player, he becomes Shea Patterson.

So that leaves us with, “Who is the QB coach at Tejas?” And “Is this person capable of coaching up a kid to extract Heisman or national championship level play from a QB?”

I’ll leave it up to you to decide, but I’ll help you with your homework: https://texassports.com/sports/football/roster/coaches/aj-milwee/3104

I think Arch is going to get dealt with kid gloves by the media for a few years because of his name. And he will want to start multiple years. Imo, I just don’t see him staying at UT and could end up at another SEC school like LSU, Tenn or Ole Miss, and he’ll be worshipped there as well. That last name will give him the benefit of the doubt for life. I don’t root for any kid to fail, but he’s being set up to fail by a lot of adults who worship his uncles

What’s wrong with the Mannings?
Click to expand...
Not trying to be an ass, but pretty much everything. They are the embodiment of all things that are SEC… and the parts of the SEC for which I, and many others, have zero respect.

I respect the hell out of Saban, I have zero love lost for anything the Mannings have touched or are involved in. ‘Ol Miss and the Vols? Yeah, fuck ‘em all. Zero interest in hearing about them in the NFL, zero fucks given for the NFL then or now… but if you want to go there, fine. They were tainted before they got legit paychecks.

And regardless of what advertising agencies or ESPN tries to tell you, none of the brothers are remotely funny, entertaining or informative.

Mannings only exceed Brady by a hair because they had some semblance of success in their God forsaken undergrad careers.

Fuck ‘em all.
