The latest college football news dropped a big hint on Arch Manning's future at Texas amid plenty of curiosity ahead of the NFL draft.

Manning’s father Cooper told Dave Wilson of ESPN that his son will remain at Texas for the 2026 season. Mannnig’s grandfather Archie said the same thing before the start of the 2025 season, but Manning, who was a redshirt sophomore this year, denied that he had made any decisions about his future in August.

Arch Manning will return to Texas in 2026, his father told ESPN on Monday. Manning, a redshirt sophomore, is considered a top NFL quarterback prospect whenever he decides to turn pro. At least for now, however, that appears to be no earlier than 2027.

The Hall of Famer didn't hold back.
