Playing an awful basically undrafted QB over an eventual top 5 pick. Huge mistake. If arch played all year who knows but thanks for allowing my titans to snatch underused due to shite QB'ing Gunnar helm

It's telling that Manning didn't beat him out. Arch was in his second year, and he really should have taken the job by force.

Yet we're told that Simpson will be better than Milroe.

Maybe he will. He also may have a better team around him. Football is funny like that.

Trust me when I say a lot of longhorn fans like myself asked that same question all season. I guess we’ll find out the season if arch really is that much better or Quinn was really our best option.

Arch was better Sark didn't want to do Quinn dirty if it was anywhere near close

Yeah, I’ll admit. I wondered that same thing all season.

It’s very possible that Manning is better than Ewers and Simpson is better than Milroe. Younger players have been backing up older players for a very long time and sometimes are more talented than the upperclassman. Not sure why we have recently decided it isn’t possible

In Alabama’s case it’s very possible that Russel is more talented than all the others

Historically, you wouldn't chase the higher ceiling necessarily because 1 loss during the learning curve could ruin the season. That may start changing once the powers get more comfortable with the idea that 10-2 is fine

And yet we’re supposed to believe Alabama will have an upgrade at QB next year.

Arch didn't look so hot when I watched him play.

Arch will be the most overrated recruit to come out in a long time.

Good refreshing take from a horn. I've yet to hear one tx fan admit in any way, shape, or form that it's even remotely possible that Arch might not totally meet expectations. I really came to kind of like Ewers.
