  Let's shift over and talking little college. I've got a couple of questions there
• 0:03
  while I've got you for a few more minutes. Here, Chris Landry on
• 0:05
  the radio when you're talking to NFL Draft colleg Football one the edition of the
• 0:08
  program. Find him on x at Landry Football also Landry football dot Com.
• 0:12
  All right, so a lot of buzz around Arch Manning and his spring game.
• 0:16
  Now, I know a spring game is just a spring game, but
• 0:19
  he looks bigger. He looks like, you know, the ball's coming out
• 0:22
  even quicker than what it was a year ago. You know, obviously with
• 0:26
  Quinn you were still there. It looks like, I mean, being the
• 0:29
  way, you know, kind of the Manning model. Shall we say that
• 0:31
  he's gonna wait his time there at Texas? What do you see when you
• 0:34
  see Arch Manning throw the throw the football? And of course his game.
• 0:38
  He's got a lot of natural ability, moves better than his uncles. He
• 0:43
  reminds me more of his granddad, you know, of how he moves,
• 0:49
  you know, obviously most of what I've seen him coming out of high school.
• 0:53
  So his ability to throw on the move, his natural arm talent.
• 0:57
  I think obviously he's got the Petter that you've alluded to that it gives him
• 1:02
  an opportunity to maybe see the game at an earlier age differently than others.
• 1:07
  So yeah, I'm excited to see that is a very good quarterback room and
• 1:11
  kind of got the right attitude. Not the prima donna, you know approach,
• 1:15
  but hey, by your time, and you know, I'm I'm sure
• 1:21
  it's gonna be a competition. Yours is the guy to beat out. I
• 1:23
  don't know if he can be beaten out with his experience, but looks like
• 1:27
  they have set them up well. And I think when in the recruiting process,
• 1:34
  the whole family really bought into how Steve Sarkisa teaches, and so I
• 1:38
  think that's a big part of he's just happy being in that environment and he's
• 1:44
  seeing the endgame of Look, you know, he doesn't have to start four
• 1:48
  years. He's just he's when his time comes, he's going to play,
• 1:51
  get experience, and he's certainly in great position with nil money, did not
• 1:56
  have to be worried about getting into the league sooner. Wrapping up one more
• 2:00
  college quarterback, cam Ward down at the University of Miami. Of course,
• 2:05
  it's a big year for the Hurricanes. It's a big year for Mario Cristoball,
• 2:08
  you know, especially with what they've done talent wise. I mean they
• 2:10
  need to be I would think right in the mix for the ACC Championship.
• 2:15
  I mean, you know, there's he has just underperformed vastly down there at
• 2:19
  Miami. But when you look at the quarterback he's bringing in from Washington State
• 2:23
  via you know, incarnate word to start out with or war to start out
• 2:28
  with? What do you see when you see this young man? Because he
• 2:30
  was a guy who was flirting with the NFL. Oh absolutely, in fact,
• 2:32
  he decided to come out, pulled his name out, and then because
• 2:37
  of the nil deals, this is a better deal and it makes sense.
• 2:40
  The guy has been very productive. I come from a lot of spread systems,
• 2:45
  spread concepts. You know, gets the ball on quickly, you know,
• 2:51
  I'm excited to see what he can do. They need consistency at quarterback.
• 2:54
  If you think about Miami steals some pretty good athletes, but they have
• 3:00
  shot themselves in the foot in big games mainly due to four quarterback play that's
• 3:05
  hurt them. If they get good quarterback play, could Miami surprised? We
• 3:08
  know that under Maurio that team has been very inconsistent. We know the disaster,
• 3:13
  it was the Georgia Tech game and so on and so forth. But
• 3:16
  I like this quarterback. This is an experienced guy that they're not having to
• 3:21
  develop, but that they can plug in and kind of naturally blend into their
• 3:24
  system. And let's finish it up with Missippi State. I don't know if
• 3:29
  you've got a chance to check out their spring game to obviously, again it
• 3:31
  is a spring game, but Blake Shaping comes over from Baylor and look the
• 3:37
  part over the weekend at least in a spring game format. But I think
• 3:39
  for Jeff Levy, Mississippi State fans a breath of fresh air to see some
• 3:44
  points scored, even if it is in a spring game. Look, I
• 3:46
  mean, I'd be very surprised if they don't start scoring points because that's what
• 3:51
  Jeff does. He'll get there with tempo. You know, it'll take him
• 3:54
  a while to get all the pieces in there. But yeah, I think
• 3:58
  Blake is a talented guy you mentioned from Baylor, another one of those guys
• 4:01
  that's kind of thrown around, and you know, I think has got a
• 4:05
  lot of natural ability to be able to have a lot of success so I'm
• 4:10
  very excited to see what he can do for them. And yeah, I
• 4:14
  expect it to look a lot different. I mean, I don't know how
• 4:15
  many points. There'll be more points, and it'll look a little different than
• 4:19
  it did last year, that's for sure. Make sure to find on exit
