Chris Long had a message for Arch Manning.
Last week, the sports world was shocked to hear that five-star quarterback Arch Manning visited the University of Virginia.
Former UVA star and Super Bowl champ Chris Long wanted to make sure that Manning had every incentive to play for the program.
“Arch Manning, if you’re listening, we want you to come to Charlottesville, man,” Long said, via 247Sports. “Like, first off, like, you will definitely be able to walk around here and not get bothered. We offer you unlimited access to studio J. All the Spindrifts in the fridge. Any time.”
Long also had an interesting offer for Arch.
“You can babysit my kids as well,” Long said. “That was on my list of promises. A 100 bucks an hour, dude. I’ll do $500 an hour. I will drink beer with your dad when he comes in town because I know your dad. I like Cooper a lot. I will be your running back that picks up the blitz. Like when your dad comes into town and he wants to drink beer and you want to go out with your friends and like, ‘Hey, dad, I’m hanging out with girls tonight.’ Like I will fall on that grenade. Like I will hang with Cooper and drink beer.”
Arch Manning is as polarizing as any high school football player in recent memory. A big part of that is the famous “Manning” last name, but he has certainly shown that he also has the skills to back it up. The quarterback currently sits as the top college football prospect in the class of 2023 according to 247 Sports and has garnered a ton of attention from some of the top schools in the country.

The favorites from the start have been Texas, Alabama, and Georgia, and many believe that he will ultimately choose between these three schools when it comes down to it.
With the NIL rules, any team could possibly be in play, but it’s not like the young man is hurting for money since he has been rich since birth.
