re: "Golden Boy" Arch Manning about to turn to brass?

Should a TFr #1 overall player beat out a 3rd year #1 Overall player within the 4th practice?

That was never discussed. I was responding to the poster wanting to compare him to Stetson Bennett. It simply isn't a fair comparison.

Expecting a TFreshman to take over immediately isn't really reasonable either, especially when the school already has a good young QB. I would expect the #1 player in the country to develop faster than a walk on, though, wouldn't you?

You saying you think it is fair to compare expectations for Manning to expectations for Stetson Bennett coming out of HS?

Anyone criticizing Arch as an early entry should think about where Stetson Bennett was as a first, second, third and fourth year player.
