All this game playing, attention seeking, narcissistic behavior by 5-stars makes me appreciate every day we have Arch Manning on campus.
He could have taken this route, created social media drama, created bidding wars, etc. Instead, Arch evaluated what he was looking for in a program, coach, culture, college and city. He low-keyed his announcement in June of 2022 after Texas had a terrible season because he believed in the coach, vision and future.
Never complained publicly after Quinn surprised everyone, coming back for 3rd season at Texas (fourth year in college), sitting bench for 2 straight years.
When other players threaten to leave if they don’t get their immediate playing time and $$$ or they play these attention seeking games during the recruiting process despite given their ‘commitment’ to play for Texas, Arch just shows class, humility and maturity consistently one day at a time.
Realize Royal is a special talent and hope he eventually joins the Horns but if not, so be it. Character and culture all day long without compromising.
Hook em!! 🧡🤘🏼🐂
