But a preseason injury to CJ Baxter gave Wisner a chance to contribute, and he seized it, ultimately usurping Jaydon Blue to become Texas' feature back. He averaged 4.7 yards per rush on his way to a 1,064-yard season and caught 44 passes for 311 yards, too.

Texas football QB Arch Manning is not seen by one analyst as the top signal-caller in the country for the 2025 season.

Arch Manning is set to take over as the Texas Longhorns ’ starting quarterback next season, stepping in after Quinn Ewers declared for the NFL Draft a little more than over a week ago. Manning has spent the past two seasons developing, redshirting his first year, and serving as Ewers’ backup this past season.

Arch Manning has served as Quinn Ewers' understudy for 2 seasons but the time has for come to lead Texas football. Ewers is heading to the NFL draft.

Manning's first game as the unquestioned face of Texas football will be against the same team Ewers faced in his last: Ohio State in Week 1.

Arch is finally the Man (ning) in Austin. Texas starting quarterback Quinn Ewers declaring for the 2025 NFL Draft has cleared the path for Manning to be the Longhorns’ starting quarterback next season. It’s possible next season will be Manning’s lone campaign as a starter before leaving for the NFL.

The Arch Manning era has begun for Texas and leading college football analyst Joel Klatt is expecting big things from the teenager, ranking the Longhorns among the favorites for the national title
