So they may be like, look, man, it's all good. We see all the best quarterbacks.ĭAN WETZEL: We've seen every quarterback in the last 20 years. They don't just know like, well, we've had two guys in the- three guys in the family playing NFL quarterback, two of whom won multiple Super Bowls. It doesn't matter.ĭAN WETZEL: Like, the thing about the Mannings that I find fascinating is they know how good he is. Or maybe they're like, look, this kid's good enough. But it doesn't have to always stay that way.ĭAN WETZEL: Maybe he wants the education. So there's just, yeah, there's a lot of pomp and circumstance and tradition and stuff that goes with Virginia that's very cool. And if you live in the lawn area, because you're a fourth year- you're not a senior, you're a fourth year, and those are those really, they're ancient little dorms, but they're super highly sought. I mean, they don't call it the campus, they call it the grounds. And you know, it's like old Southern tradition, which is kind of Manning-esque, you know. They've got a lot to show off.ĭAN WETZEL: I mean, if you're into campuses, that's one of the best going. They do a very nice job with these sort of things. And even if Texas kind of looked like that, but Texas is eventually joining the SEC, depending- and I mean, if Arch is still in school, he'd have to probably go play either at Ole Miss or at Tennessee or at LSU or somewhere where the fans thought they were going to get him. As you said, it would totally take the heat out of the potential SEC squabbling of going here, going there. But he's worked with some great quarterbacks, two star guys.Īnd it's a neutral sort of thing. As you said, the vast unknown is what's he like as a head coach. And he has a great track record as an assistant. I'm sure he is phenomenal when you sit down with him as a recruit.
So yeah, Tony Elliot, look, an impressive guy. Because it is a total outlier and one that we would never have considered, really, you know. And it's like a whole fresh start, where he doesn't even to have to deal with like all the angry SEC fan bases. He's not going to have to fight over what we're talking about if it's Texas or Alabama. But if he goes to Virginia, he's almost sure to be the starter. They're in control.ĭoes Virginia- like what kind of chance is this? Obviously, this is a big swing. OK? I mean, Archie Manning rigged the NFL draft to get Eli Manning out of San Diego and to the Giants. They are not going into this- they are not just sitting there going, oh, this school offered me 50 grand more, but they got, look at the depth, I didn't see the depth chart. The Mannings like being in control.ĭAN WETZEL: OK? They like being in control. It was Cooper, and his wife went on the trip too. Now you have no track record of whether Tony Elliott, is now the coach of Virginia, can be a great coach. I don't know, you know.īut Tony Elliott coached Deshaun Watson and Trevor Lawrence, among others. You know, we've lamented a million times, how the hell is Harbaugh not getting all the quarterbacks. And you know, like Ryan Day's getting the hype for that. Because I think we had this discussion on who's known as the QB coach. He was the offensive coordinator at Clemson. It should be fun to watch him narrow down his choices, and for one lucky school, it will be amazing.DAN WETZEL: -last weekend.
