Steve Spurrier Questions Arch Manning Heisman Hype, QB Rotation at Texas
Steve Spurrier, legendary Florida Gators coach, has publicly questioned the hype surrounding Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning, particularly why Manning saw limited playing time in 2024 despite being a Heisman Trophy favorite. Spurrier raised concerns about why Quinn Ewers, a seventh-round NFL draft pick, was preferred over Manning for most of last season, suggesting that if Manning were truly superior, he should have earned more playing time. Texas coach Steve Sarkisian defended his decision, emphasizing Ewers' role in recruiting key players to the program and the team's overall success with Ewers as the starter. Critics, including Spurrier and some sports analysts, view the choice to stick with Ewers as a missed opportunity for Manning to gain experience earlier, potentially impacting Texas' national title chances. Manning, a highly touted prospect, is set to take over as Texas' full-time quarterback in the upcoming season, with his debut highly anticipated in a marquee game against Ohio State. The quarterback competition and Texas' strategy have sparked debate about balancing talent development and team loyalty within a high-profile college football program.
