In all seriousness, that might possibly be the best situation for Manning. 1% of it happening, but Texas doesn't seem to be able to maximize his full potential. Or maybe he was overrated, due to his name.

Cigs would get more out of him than texas is getting

Absolutely zero thoughts that little Archie would transfer to IU but IMO his presence would be more of a distraction than a benefit if it were to happen.

I don’t know…the distraction wouldn’t come from him, and Cig’s shadow looms large. It wouldn’t be a Bronny James to USC type situation.

If Sark leaves after this year then it’s definitely on the table.

Agree! Peyton(and the Mannings)loves Indiana, and he and McAfee are pretty close. And we know how much Pat loves Indiana(IU).

The problem with the whole Arch hypothetical is that, again, Arch sucks out loud. He’s not bad because of Sark or Texas, he’s bad because he sucks.

Sammy Jacobs from the Hoosier Huddle is hinting that this may be staff initiated and he doubts a '26 QB will come on board this late in the cycle.  He tacitly mentions this could be a positive sign that Cherry will join the QB room again, but again lots of guess work at this point so we'll see!

Wonder if teams will develop relationships with lower level teams where we can encourage a kid to go and get experience vs being 4th string here.  Then if they develop we swoop back in

With NIL the only advantage would be to run a similar system so we have better info.  If another team wants the kid more they are likely going to get them.

I hope so (Cherry).  He's got every tool a QB needs.

Yeah it could but like schools used to have a relationship with prep schools for basketball this could be similar. You help the kid with the right program where he can go and be qb1 or 2 right from the start. They run similar style offense and then if they take off you kind of already have that inside track at least.
