Coach Steve Sarkisian has revealed little about the competition, but noted this week that Quinn Ewers' experience from 2022 has given him an edge so far.
“One thing we had talked about is sometimes your appearance/perception precedes you and then you almost have to overcome yourself,” Sarkisian said when spring drills started. “So all of a sudden now the guy gets a haircut and he cleans his beard up a little bit. And everyone thinks Quinn’s real serious right now. But that’s human nature, right?”
Manning's first spring with the Longhorns promised to be a whirlwind as soon as he landed on campus as one of the hottest recruits in the country. The grandson and nephew of three former NFL quarterbacks carries the burden of astronomical expectations at Texas.“He’s a kid. He’s a college kid,” Sarkisian said, noting Manning twice lost his student ID in a week. “I think, so many times, you see the Manning name and you think he’s this perfect, in a box, like nothing’s wrong with him.
