To hit 5k ... 14 games: 357.14 YPG 15 games: 333.33 YPG 16 games: 312.5 YPG

Sign me up for standing in the pocket and taking a hit. My favorite throw from 2024.

I thought this was a really interesting question from @Jarveaux on a topic posted Friday afternoon. Could Texas QB Arch Manning be the first quarterback in Texas history to reach 4,000 passing yards in a single season? Doing so would set a new single season passing record for The University of Texas, breaking Colt McCoy's 2008 season of 3,859 yards. Given the length of the College Football Playoff schedule and the expectation/talent on roster currently, it is definitely within the realm of possibility. In fact, I believe it will happen. The Longhorns could play anywhere from 12–16 games in 2025. Of course, I think I speak for everyone when I say playing only 12 games meant something went terribly wrong. But for the sake of the argument, let's look at the required passing numbers to hit the 4k mark by games played. 12 games: 333.3 YPG 13 games: 307.7 YPG 14 games: 285.7 YPG 15 games: 266.6 YPG 16 games: 250.0 YPG Texas QB Quinn Ewers threw for an average of 289.9 passing yards per game in his 12 starts last year, totaling 3,472 yards. Given he missed UTSA and Mississippi State, two games where Arch Manning threw for a combined for 583 passing yards, it is fair to assume those numbers would have been comparable. Meaning, a healthy Quinn Ewers gets to the 4,000 mark last year. So for Manning, it is definitely a possibility. The University of Texas single season passing record should be on watch this fall. So back to the original question in the article's title – Will Arch Manning Hit 4,000 Passing Yards? The answer for me is simple. Yes. If the Texas QB remains healthy, there will be plenty of opportunity to run of the numbers and the length of the season will allow for Manning to eclipse the record set by the former Longhorn Legend.

Certainly some depth here after the Draft.

Maui isn't the same without Bill Walton.

I guess I have no choice but to take Stampeders -7 this evening.

Derrek Cooper will certainly be a tough guy to hold onto. Opposing schools will continue to work on Tyler Atkinson as well. I would expect Miami makes a strong push late for both Cooper and James Johnson. Building off the nugget on Johnson, I feel good about the trenches at the moment, in terms of Texas being able to hold onto.

For the most part, it is no more communication with other programs' coaches or personnel pieces.

Trying to get a quick rush of energy for y'all!

Has shut down his recruitment, per Hayes Fawcett.

He's been spectacular. I can't stand it.. lol

Part of why the staff is looking at 3 at LB in 2026. The one take in 2024 with Ty'Anthony Smith leaves the room thin-ish given who all is eligible to declare.

It would be no surprise to me if Baxter left for the league after this season, regardless of production

Ohio State finished dead last in the B1G this season. Went 5–25

Great breakdown here, Jeff!

Sarkisian says he prioritizes talking with high school head coaches in the world of agents in high school recruiting. Urges HS coaches to remain impactful in the lives of high school recruits and take control of these conversations.

Sarkisian: "We don't chase stars." Added the staff trusts their evaluations and prioritizes fits in the program/culture over anything else.

"I like the hunger of this team."

Sark says there was one player left on the roster who went 5–7 in 2021. And that was Michael Taaffe.

This was as lengthy an answer I have ever seen from Steve Sarkisian – talking about in-state recruiting.
