To remain atop of the college football world, you must win on the recruiting trail. So it should come as no surprise that Alabama head football coach Nick Saban would spend his Friday night watching the most coveted prospect in the class of 2023, Arch Manning.
This time Manning was leading Newman High School on the hardwood instead of the gridiron.
Manning is the nephew of NFL legends Peyton and Eli Manning and is also the grandson of Archie Manning.
Considering his lineage, Manning’s talent is no surprise. Standing at 6’4″, 215 pounds, Manning has the prototypical size and tools to be the next legendary Manning quarterback.
In the Gym Hoops released this video on its Twitter page showing Nick Saban and Bill O’Brien in attendance. Defensive coordinator Pete Golding was also in attendance.
Nick Saban and other top college 🏈coaches watch Arch Manning and Newman 🏀 GO AT De La Salle!
