Had it all gone according to script, Quinn Ewers plays one more game at the University of Texas and shortly thereafter announces his intentions to declare for the NFL Draft.
This has been the plan since Ewers was at Carroll high school, but a Manning was never a part of this scenario. As is often the case with most scripts, expect a re-write.
The quarterback room at the University of Texas is now the most interesting story in all of college football.
It’s hard to envision a scenario where Quinn Ewers is the starting quarterback at Texas in 2024. And he’s not a bad college quarterback.
Ewers spent one season at Ohio State before transferring to Texas, where he has played the last two. Declaring for the NFL Draft now would be a needless risk.
Also a risk, returning to Texas for an additional season when quarterback royalty is QB2. Arch Manning didn’t sign with Texas to watch football.
