Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning is receiving some slight jabs from the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks.
has some bulletin-board material to lean on when he inevitably gets the start in Saturday's non-conference finale against Louisiana-Monroe.quarterback became an even hotter topic of discussion on Wednesday when ULM defensive coordinator Earnest Hill told the media that some his current players beatwhen he was in high school, which is allowing them to not "fear" the big-name prodigy headed into the game.
"We actually have some kids on our team who played against him in New Orleans, and a couple guys done beat him already,""So, they don't hold too much fear against him. They're not gonna hold any fear against him coming up here." Regardless of the opponent or starting quarterback, the Warhawks have no obligation to "fear" anyone even the No. 1-ranked Longhorns and Manning, who is coming off a five-touchdown performance against UTSA. Hill's comments are likely intentional in order to rile up his defense in a game where ULM is a 44.5-point underdog.none of the players currently listed on ULM's roster attended any of the high schools that beat Manning during his time at Isidore Newman in New Orleans.
Ask Manning about Hill's remarks, and he'll likely brush it off as nothing. Years of high-level PR training and a legendary family talking his ear off will prevent Manning from returning the trash talk even if he had the desire to do so. He'll look to let his play do the talking when No. 1 Texas kicks off against ULM at home on Saturday at 7 p.m. CT.
