It is really about what feels right and where he sees himself. “He is really a meat-and-potatoes kid,” Stewart said. It does seem like a recruitment ripped out of 1985, if not from the desired time stamp around America’s bicentennial celebration. They’ve gotten to know Arch and stayed in contact with him.” They didn’t force anything and certainly have just allowed things to play out. He’s built a foundation to win year-in and year-out and Georgia has done it the right way. I think Coach Smart has solidified them as a national power and it just checks all the boxes. It is program year-jn and year-out that is successful. “I think the family has known coach Smart for years going back and then coach Monken and his NFL pedigree and what not.
I think he loves Coach Smart and his energy and how he is involved in everything. They had known Matt Luke at Georgia, too. It was such a cool town and a great college town. That was the first thing he said about Athens to me. “I think that he loves Athens,” Stewart said. How has Georgia been able to establish itself as a true contender here? They came away nothing but impressed after their visit.” “I’d expect that with the way Coach Smart runs his practices and how energetic he is,” Stewart said. They know how fluid college football is.”Ĭooper and Arch made the trip. That’s what has been so great about it for him and his family. I think that’s why he is taking his time. What he’s told me is he wants to go to college. “It is really truly about the relationships around and within the program and the football,” Stewart said. That’s really the model I’ve tried to follow to formulate relationships. “Where he can get a chance to meet coaches and not get caught up in all the other stuff. “When it all started, one thing his father resonated to me was ‘I’d like to make this as close to a old school recruitment as possible’ and he said ‘Almost like a 1970s recruit’ with this,” Stewart said. It is just a handshake and a conversation. “He’s never blessed and humbled to receive or announce anything. “I’m so thankful that even though he never does it he’s not on Twitter,” Stewart said. That’s not a relationship I see working out very well.Arch Manning can be likened to a time capsule recruit. The Mannings and Kiffin are cut from two different cloths. Plus, do they really want their son playing for Lane Kiffin? They didn’t do it with Peyton, there’s no reason for them to do it with Arch. I just can’t see the Mannings pushing Ole Miss on Arch. It’s exciting to see for the state and the SEC”. They’ve got it going right now, no question. “Arch is friends with Walker Howard, who just committed. They’ve been giving him a hard time for a long time about Baton Rouge and he’s been to a couple of games there,” said Cooper during an interview with 104.5 ESPN.Ĭooper then pointed out that Arch is good friends with recent Tigers commit Walker Howard.
“Arch has grown up around all my friends locally in New Orleans that are all LSU fans. But I think it’s fairly obvious that it’s going to come down to Ole Miss or LSU.Īnd LSU may have the advantage, despite the Manning family connections to Ole Miss. Will it be LSU football or Ole Miss for Manning?Ĭooper said this week that the Manning family is open to letting Arch go wherever he wants to go. Archie told USA Today earlier this year that Arch is a little bit ahead of where Eli and Peyton were at the same age.Īs a freshman in high school, Manning tossed for 2,438 yards, 34 touchdowns, and only six interceptions. The hype for Arch, who just finished his freshman season, is already getting crazy.
And his grandfather is Archie Manning (former Ole Miss quarterback). His uncles are Eli Manning (former Ole Miss quarterback) and Peyton Manning (former Tennessee quarterback). His father is Cooper Manning, who had a scholarship to play wide receiver at Ole Miss. Manning, a New Orleans native, is as close to football royalty as you can get.
