Social Media Reacts To Terrible Arch Manning News
Fans on social media have offered various reactions to Texas quarterback Arch Manning receiving some bad news.
Manning, who has gotten an opportunity to play under center for the Longhorns this season, will be handing the starting job back to Quinn Ewers after coming on for him on the back of an oblique injury vs. UTSA and then starting the two games that followed.
ESPN’s Jordan Reid reports that head coach Steve Sarkisian has made it official, with Ewers now recovered.
“Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian officially announced that QB Quinn Ewers will start vs. Oklahoma. He missed the team’s previous two games after suffering an oblique strain vs. UTSA,” Reid tweeted this Thursday.
“Oklahoma this week and a showdown next Saturday night against Georgia. Two resume games upcoming for Ewers with major draft implications. Massive opportunities for him.”
Arch Manning Getting Benched Is No Surprise
Of course, this shouldn’t have surprised Arch, and fans shouldn’t have been moved either. It was always expected that Ewers would be the starter once healthy, no matter how well Arch played – and he did impress.
“👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿 let my Guy Arch cook lol,” someone wrote.
“100% the right call. This is Quinn’s team and he’s best suited to lead the Longhorns. Having Arch as a backup for ‘24 is as good of a QB insurance policy as anyone has in the country,” another countered.
