One can only hope that your post is in jest, other than stating Texas and Clemson are possibilities.

In control of all those states, right?

Looking to add even more territory to their empire, right?

I can't blame Peyton for not wanting to come to LSU in the mid 90s


Yea, LSU was a trainwreck in the 90s much like Tennessee football is a trainwreck now. Peyton made a good choice at the time, Tennessee Olines actually kept their QBs in tact back then.

It will end up being the same reason Arch never sniffs playing for Tennessee now other than a courtesy visit on behalf of his uncle perhaps.

Peyton is a SEC historian and the wound was somewhat still fresh. The Mannings are smart people and guide him into the best situation. LSU in the 90’s was a complete disaster.

The Manning's are not Louisianans. They are as much Louisianan as Ben Simmons is a tiger.

You guys need to seriously chill out. And thanks for reminding me about the Oranges, my dad used to bitch about the freaking throwing of the oranges in the game that LSU tried to rebreak archies arm. (My dad was seriously more pissed off about it than Archie was.) My dad hated LSU with a passion, and was an Ole Miss recruiter. That’s why I went to Ole Miss and my brother played football at………..


LSU.

The Manning’s are not anti LSU like you guys think, they are not some evil empire. They don’t hate anyone. No one pressured Eli or Peyton to do anything.

Little Arch may go to Texas or LSU or wherever. He may end up at LSU his Junior year, all these QBs are free agents now

I remember reading where Archie was a kid, listening to an LSU v UM on the radio with his grandfather, and LSU won, and he described crying all night.

That was when I realized no Manning will ever wear purple and gold. Same as no descendants of mine will play for Bama.

So be it.

He played for Ole Miss. There is a tradition of LSU fans preceding their name with GTH…

Some like to refer to them as Ole Piss…

That may have hurt the Manning’s feelings.

No Manning has won a national title in football......Arch is going to go somewhere he can win a national title.

Even though Bama made paw paw cry on National TV, I'd bet on Bama, Clemson, Florida LSU, Texas in that order.

Personally I wish he had been drafted by another NFL club cause he never did anything for NOLA like other NOLA QBs


Yea, you’re dumb
Manning led the MFL in passing one year while playing on one of the shittiest teams in said league…

this is laughably stupid. Archie and Olivia lived in Louisiana for 50 freaking years. Their kids were born there, Cooper still lives there, they have businesses there, hold the passing academy there. That they inspire this much vitriol simply because their sons who are good at football did not play for LSU says a lot more about you than them.

Would you let your son play for BAMA?

Yeah right. Texas has far too much to prove and not nearly enough time to prove it. No way is Arch going to Texas. Sorry to burst your bubble.
