Texas football legend Colt McCoy lauded Arch Manning for taking a redshirt year and staying patient behind Quinn Ewers.
, fans were intrigued to see if the redshirt freshman would begin to play a bigger role on the team this year., and he did not disappoint. He entered the matchup with two minutes to go in the third quarter and tossed histo transfer wide receiver Silas Bolden after scrambling out of the pocket before later finding the end zone a second time in the fourth quarter on a one-yard rushing touchdown to cap off Texas' 52-0 win.
"I think Arch Manning is the real deal," McCoy said. "I've spent some time with him, obviously he's got the last name, the pedigree, all those things, but the kid works really, really hard, he's really smart, and I think it's a credit to him for sticking around and redshirting and really buying his time to be the starter at Texas."
Manning will now take a redshirt title into his second year with the Longhorns. McCoy said that Manning's decision to redshirt and stay patient behind starting quarterback"The redshirt year that I had behind Vince, first of all, I wasn't nearly high-rated as Arch, nobody knew who I was, but the redshirt year was the best thing that ever happened to me," McCoy said. "I was able to just really learn the system. I spent a lot of time in the weight room.
