After months of anticipation and fanfare, Arch Manning made his long-awaited first appearance as a Longhorn on Saturday when he took the field for Texas’s annual Orange-White spring game.
Manning, donning a No. 16 burnt orange jersey, joined fellow quarterbacks Quinn Ewers and Maalik Murphy in putting on a show for the Texas faithful for the first time in his collegiate career. But, of course, the much-hyped freshman’s showing commanded a bit more attention given his famous family.
From the moment Manning entered the game for the Orange team’s second drive, Longhorns fans made their appreciation for the highly touted freshman known with a big ovation.
