College football fans have long awaited the commitment decision of highly-touted quarterback recruit Arch Manning. And while the No. 1 overall prospect in the 2023 class has yet to announce his choice, one school has emerged as the leading favorite to land him.
On Friday, Eric Nahlin of Inside Texas entered his official prediction that Manning will commit to play football at the University of Texas.
“After mentioning the recruitment of 2023 New Orleans (La.) Isidore Newman QB and Five-Star Plus+ Arch Manning as something worth Texas fans paying attention to, even briefly before Tom Herman’s 2020 curtain call, I’ve entered an official prediction for Texas to land the nation’s top prospect,” Nahlin writes.

The college football world took to Twitter to react to this news.
“Inject this into my veins, give me this in a tablet to dissolve under my tongue, let me smoke this out of a crack pipe,” one excited Longhorns fan wrote.
Oh boy!!! If Texas goes from Ewers to Manning…. I hate to say it….. but…..
(Should be stated I am not a Texas fan, nor will I ever be. This is not an endorsement for the Longhorns but said players on the team.) https://t.co/oWPpnkE3yq pic.twitter.com/aoqsn0qECO

If the Longhorns can land Manning in the 2023 class, they’ll be stacked at the quarterback position for the next few years. Former Ohio State five-star Quinn Ewers is expected to win the starting job in Austin this offseason, giving the Texas program hope heading into the 2022 season as well.
Manning reportedly “lit up” during his visit with the Longhorns in October and is rumored to have a close relationship with head coach Steve Sarkisian.
Manning is still weighing his options between major programs like Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Ole Miss, Florida and LSU.
Where do you think the five-star QB will land?
