Each year, the Manning family and a panel of media members annually releases the “Manning Watch List,” which includes a group of 33 college football quarterbacks to look out for as potentially the sport’s best in the upcoming season.
The results were released on Tuesday, with Texas starting quarterback Quinn Ewers making the list.
The ironic part about this, though, is that Ewers will be starting over Arch Manning, the nephew of Peyton and Eli and grandson of Archie Manning, all of whom vote on this award. The topic of the Longhorns’ quarterback battle heading into the 2023 season was everywhere until coach Steve Sarkisian announced Ewers would be the starter back in April.
