Hey Brother,

Yes, Arch may be taking over the QB job at Texas. Yes, he is awesome. Yes, we love him by extension, since he is the nephew of the GOAT Peyton.

But we love you more. You're our guy. We embrace you 100%. Not only because you're even more awesome, but because you chose to join us. You're wearing orange for us. And we have faith you're leading us to the very top of the mountain these next coupla-few years.

You stay as long as you want, and have no doubt. We got your back. You're our QB.

Go Vols!

p.s. Some of us got a feeling you might become the new GOAT. Nothing against Peyton, but we just think you might be that special to the program. Time will tell. GBO!

I hope arch goes to the NFL and does great. However for now I hope Texas loses every game. Nico is our guy and the rest are last place.

Nah, it's more like....

You love your son? Of course you do. Is that a man crush? Nah. Just love for a son.

It's like that.

Go Vols!
I don't see it as a man crush, but no need to explain either way. If anyone wants to talk about a man crush just mention Kiffen.


Yes, I spelt it that way on porpoise.

Why would we love Arch Manning? What does Arch Manning matter to us? That makes no sense to me at all. It's not as if the Mannings are some kind of unifying dynasty across sports. The kid plays for Texas. Super. Has nothing to do with us.

And also, not with this "new GOAT" stuff. Peyton played here for four years and chose to stay for his senior season back when these guys weren't getting paid millions. Never lost to Alabama. Has repped Tennessee like a champion for the last twenty five years. Comes back to Knoxville quite a bit. It feels overly emotional and kneejerk to declare a guy who's played four games the GOAT over Peyton's Volunteer legacy. I'm glad Iamaleava is here, but just, man. That's too much in my book.
