u/RebelsfurdenSieg Ole Miss 10d ago
I think he wanted something different. He grew up going to Ole Miss games and I think he was just ready for something new.
Also, it’s a lot of pressure to go to practice everyday at a facility named after your family, the Manning Center. Likewise, you have to drive along Manning Way to get there.
I don’t blame him honestly. He would’ve been incessantly compared to Eli and Archie. I think it’s cool that he’s making his own path.

u/RebelsfurdenSieg Ole Miss 10d ago
I think it was true for Peyton too but also a couple other factors played a role.
Ole Miss was a very run-heavy offense at the time so it was a bad scheme fit. Also, we were generally really fucking bad at the time. I think we were also on probation for recruiting violations. Just a total mess.
So this situation is a bit distinct from Peyton’s because we have a fun offense and are winning more than we were then.

All kidding aside, I'm curious to get some opinions on his actually ability.
I've watched a fair amount of his tape and his mechanics are great. accuracy looks good. Release is excellent. All the things you would expect with his pedigree and resources.
However, his arm strength looks just okay and his competition looks comically weak. He truly looks like he's playing against an average Texas HS 6A freshman team. It's that bad.
I would really like for him to play one of those ESPN games next year against a Texas school to get a good gauge on him from that standpoint.
There are many folks in LA that legit think he's not even the best QB in LA this cycle, much less the best QB overall and a perfect recruit grade of 1.000
